Thanks to your generous support, we were able to provide many school meals to children in Malawi throughout June. At the same time, our awareness and educational activities in Japan—centered around coffee—continue to expand. In this report, we share voices from the school meal program in Malawi, as well as highlights from our activities in Japan.

Among them are twin 4th graders who love the porridge served at school. Each morning, they look forward to break time not only for the meal itself, but also for the warmth and joy it brings.
A parent of the twins shared:
“As a parent, I am truly grateful for this program. Just knowing my children will not spend the day hungry gives me strength. Because of the porridge, they can concentrate in class and return home with smiles. This is more than just food—it is support, kindness, and hope for a better future.”
