What’s the cost of NOT providing school meals? If you want increased poverty, more hunger & more destabilization, then don’t provide school meals. But if you'd like stronger communities, more job opportunities & economic empowerment, give every child a school meal! #ISMD2023 pic.twitter.com/Fiu5…

This year's International School Meals Day reminds me of Marwa, a Syrian girl I met in 2018 in eastern Aleppo. She's among 15 million kids who benefit from @WFP's school meals. Many like her wouldn't get an education if not for daily school meals. #FrontlineThrowbacks #ISMD2023 pic.twitter.com/S7Ch…
