A Meal That Changed Everything

Before the school feeding program, Ndi's family struggled to provide even one full meal a day. Ndi often came to school hungry—and sometimes didn’t come at all. Today, with a warm, locally sourced, healthy, and nutritious meal waiting for him at school, Ndi attends classes every day. His teachers say he is finally thriving because he is being nourished every day. This is what one meal per day and every day can do. It nourishes more than a stomach—it restores hope, improves learning, and strengthens families.

WHAT WE DO AT THE COMMUNITY VISION GROUP

CVG's NOURISH2FLOURISH Program

CVG implements a Home-Grown School Feeding initiative called the Nourish2Flourish program, which provides locally sourced healthy and nutritious meals to pre-primary and primary-aged children in Cameroon. This program improves educational and nutritional outcomes, empowers farmers, and prioritises regenerative agricultural practices

Our Advocacy efforts are inclusive and participatory

Beyond School Feeding - Complementary programs

In every community where we nourish children to flourish, CVG implements complementary programs, including Hepatitis B Campaign, Child Vision and Eyecare, Literacy and Library Program, and Menstrual Health Program

Dietary and Nutritional Assessments

The CVG Centre for Nutritional Assessment is a national hub dedicated to improving the quality of nutrition data, strengthening dietary assessment practices, and building the capacity needed to address malnutrition, childhood obesity, and rising cases of nutrition-related diseases. Created in partnership with ICONIC and the University of Southampton (UK), the Centre supports CVG’s mission to improve child health, education, food systems, and community wellbeing. It also provides essential research and intelligence for the Nourish2Flourish School Feeding Program.

IMPACT STORIES

We’re Now Feeding

2,000 Children Every School Day in Cameroon

Through the Nourish2Flourish School Feeding Program, Community Vision Group (CVG) is providing daily healthy and nutritious meals to 2,000 children  — helping them stay in school, learn better, and grow healthier. But the need is far greater.

More Than 5 Million

Children Still Lack School Meals

Across Cameroon, over 5 million primary school children are attending school without access to a daily meal. This means millions of children are learning on an empty stomach — impacting their overall well-being.



800,000 Children

in the NW & SW have been out of school

Ongoing conflict in the North West and South West Regions has disrupted livelihoods, increased hunger, and limited access to education, leaving more than 800,000 school-aged children out of school and among the most vulnerable in the country.

These numbers reveal a simple truth: The Scale-Up of School Meals Programme in Cameroon Is Urgent.

School Meals

Cameroon VS the REST OF THE WORLD

There are 466 million children globally receiving school meals through government-led programmes.

In Sub-Saharan Africa, the number of children getting school meals rose to 87 million in 2024, up from 66 million in 2022.

According to CEIC (based on World Bank data), there were 5,155,547 primary school pupils in 2023 and this increased to approximately 5,160,000, in Cameroon with only 174,408 children receiving school meals (3.38%).

This implies that a large majority (about 96.63%) of enrolled primary pupils in Cameroon are not receiving school meals, highlighting the urgent need to scale up school feeding programs
