Research funding for Feeding Project for Homeless

Contract

This is a UNV contract. More about UNV contracts.

We are looking for two online volunteers to help research for funds to implement our proposal for our feeding project. The project is geared towards ensuring that all people can have at least a daily meal in the communities where we operate in Africa. Our centers will provide and serve meals for less fortunate - people that cannot afford a daily meal. Already the project commences some activities in Sierra Leone feeding Ebola orphans and now need to develop a full proposal to secure funding to expand our activities. We request for volunteer to have knowledge on such projects to better aid us in developing project proposal. The volunteers will not submit the funding requests on our behalf.

  Africa is home to some of the most nutritionally insecure people in the world. Poor infrastructure and limited resources compounded with conflict, HIV, and poor access to health services are factors that contribute to the staggering levels of malnutrition and food insecurity on the continent. One in nine people in Africa, women and children don’t get enough to eat, despite the fact that more than enough food is produced daily to feed everyone. Most of Africa's hungry live in on the street and many of them are children. The organization intends to work on this project to provide a meal to the less privileged as its part of the organization to minimize Hunger.
