Welcome to Eat So They Can!

HOST AN EVENT - INVITE YOUR FRIENDS - CHANGE LIVES!

Eat So They Can is an initiative of Global Volunteer Network and GVN Foundation. The concept is simple - by hosting a dinner party, you can help end poverty around the world!

People all around the world host dinner parties, invite their friends, share their ideas about world hunger and gather donations! This money goes to support community projects across Africa, Asia and South America, both providing for immediate nutritional needs and sustainable programs to feed communities for years to come.

We believe all our small actions can combine in a powerful way to end hunger and empower communities. Ending the poverty-cycle one dinner party at a time!

“When the end of poverty arrives, as it can and should in our own generation, it will be citizens in a million communities in rich and poor countries alike ... who will have turned the tide” ~ Dr Jeffrey Sachs.

Hello again!

I hope you enjoyed last week's update on the new Uganda projects. This week, we would like to take you on a trip to the village of Losinoni in Tanzania.

We recently sent out  a grant of $1,159 to help fund AfricAid's lunch program at Losinoni Primary School. AfricAid is a nonprofit organization that supports girls’ education in Tanzania in order to provide young women with the opportunity to transform their own lives and the futures of their communities.
