Laila, a single mother, recounted her experience with the food assistance. “As a widow, I always worry about how to feed my two children. The food basket arrived just when we needed it most. The beans , rice, oil and flour helped me prepare filling meals that keep my kids energized throughout the day. I can see the difference in their smiles and energy levels. They’re not only eating better but are also more engaged in school, which gives me hope for a brighter future.”
