HomeOLD - ACFS Community Education and Feeding Scheme

Saving children from the ravages of malnutrition since 1945

Ours was the original peanut butter sandwich and milk feeding scheme – and this humble meal remains at the core of our flagship feeding project.

Over the years, the organisation has grown and developed to provide a holistic programme aimed at enabling all children to reach their potential.
