*Visitors Spotlight* We recently welcomed Betty Kibaara, Director of Food Programs at @rockefellerfdn , to Solid’Africa’s Bujyujyu School Feeding Kitchen and Kitchen Gardens in Rwamagana District, supporting school feeding for nearby schools, including GS Bujyujyu. The visit highlighted the power of linking local agriculture to nutrition. Through our school feeding programme, implemented in partnership with the Government of Rwanda and supported by The Rockefeller Foundation, 29,000 students receive nutritious daily meals sourced from local farmers. The impact goes beyond the classroom. While children enjoy healthier meals that support learning and wellbeing, farmers benefit from reliable markets, predictable demand, and stronger livelihoods, creating sustainable local food systems that serve entire communities. “Every school meal is an investment in two futures at once: healthier children and stronger local food systems.” #SolidAfrica #Solidtogether #rockefellerfoundation

On World Hunger Day, we are reminded that hunger isn’t always about empty plates - it’s also about missing nutrition, dignity, and opportunity. That’s why Solid’Africa is building public nutrition infrastructure in Rwanda - a collaborative effort between government, partners, local farmers, and communities - connecting climate-smart agriculture and clean energy kitchens to ensure every meal nourishes both body and mind. Every day, 1,800 patients and 30,000 students receive meals that heal, fuel learning, and preserve dignity. Because hunger is more than missing food - it’s missing nutrition. #SolidTogether #WorldHungerDay #NutritionSecurity #FarmToPlate

Visitor Spotlight Last week, we were honored to welcome the CEO of the Pharo Foundation and his team for a Farm-to-Plate visit. The Pharo Foundation is a mission-driven organization focused on economic development and self-reliance across Africa. During the visit, the team experienced our nutrition infrastructure firsthand, walking the journey from Rugende Farm to our Rusororo Kitchen and seeing how nutrition is built into Rwanda’s public systems.🌱🍽 #VisitorSpotlight #FarmToPlate #SolidAfrica #SolidTogether #NutritionSecurity

Our farmers are at the heart of every meal we serve. 🌱 Because nutrition starts in the soil, and our ingredients are locally sourced. Their hardwork work fuels the public nutrition infrastructure we are building. From the farm to our kitchens, patients in the six public hospitals we serve in, receive three nutritious meals a day while they are receiving treatment. This is where meals that heal begin. 💚 Gift a meal that heals today.

Every step in our production process is designed to maintain the highest quality, so that when our meals reach patients, they are nutritious, safe, and made with genuine care. “ ~Wilfred Omondi #SolidTogether #SolidarityInAction #GiftAMealThatHeals

We Are Solid Together is more than a statement — it is a commitment. A commitment to stand in unwavering solidarity with every patient whose life is touched by the grants we write, the meals we provide, and the systems we strengthen. Because injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere, and access to dignity, nutrition, and care should never be a privilege. This is solidarity in action. ~ Essien Ukana #SolidTogether #SolidarityInAction #GiftAMealThatHeals
