Mastercard and Glovo Unveil School Feeding Program in Kenya and Nigeria

Mastercard and Glovo have partnered to provide over 300,000 meals to school children in Kenya and Nigeria throughout an entire school year.

This initiative aims to combat hunger, malnutrition, and inadequate learning in underserved communities.

In this partnership, Mastercard will donate to local charities, Food4Education in Kenya and Lagos Food Bank in Nigeria, for every transaction made on the Glovo app.

“It is our aim to seamlessly foster positive impact, as exemplified by this joint effort with Glovo to support school going children with nutritious meals, eradicate hunger and foster an effective learning experience.” Shehryar Ali, Mastercard’s Senior Vice President and Country Manager for East Africa and Indian Ocean Islands said.

This collaboration marks a significant step in addressing social challenges through collective action and inspires future impactful projects.

General Manager of Kenya at Glovo, Caroline Mutuku said, “Recognizing that social challenges require collective action, we understand that partnerships between businesses can lead to a more significant impact in local communities and inspire others to embark on similar projects.”
