Whangarei charity in New Zealand plans to provide 1.2 million school lunches annually.
A Whangarei charity wants to provide lunch to 6000 Northland children a week – or 1.2 million annually.

The Food for Life programme, which is run by Whangarei’s Hare Krishna community, has been providing lunches one day a week to up to five schools in Whangārei since 2012.

Now co-ordinator Buddhi Wilcox wants to expand the programme further across Northland.

The charity is part of the Food for Life Global group. Wilcox said in India the programme provides more than two millions meals a day. One kitchen can produce up to 200,000 meals a day, with vans coming in to collect the food and deliver it to schools up to two hours away.
