Secure Healthy Meals for 200 Children in Hernani for 4 months

Hernani, Eastern Samar

Feeding Program

Community leaders and volunteers respond to hunger among Filipino children in their barangay. They set up a community kitchen to cook daily nutritious lunch meals for over 200 kids.

In the Hernani kitchen, children would bring their plates/lunch box to a common area inside the community and kitchen volunteers would serve them food. The kids go back home to eat. The kitchen is also a hub for bayanihan where volunteers, local government units, partners and leaders are essential for the program to work.

You can feed one child in Brgy. Carmen, Hernani, Eastern Samar for only Php 20.00 per meal. The community kitchen aims to provide meals for at least 120 days to kids ages 1 – 12 years old.

Hunger, especially among children, is a significant roadblock that the poor have to overcome on a daily basis. Through Kusina ng Kalinga (Care Kitchens), we build caring communities for our young. It is where lunchboxes or plates don’t just contain meals, but also carry the commitment to care together until no child is left hungry. This bayanihan effort is powered by Kusina ng Kalinga (KnK), Gawad Kalinga’s anti-hunger program.

When an act of kindness multiplies, it helps more people. Everyone can help, no matter how small or big. As long as it comes from the heart, we can persuade more people to help. Financial scarcity is not an obstacle to helping those who are in need.



Pilipinas Kontra Gutom (PKG) is the key output of the Task Force on Zero Hunger led by CabSec Karlo Nograles. PKG is a multi-sectoral movement founded to help eradicate hunger and malnutrition in the Philippines by 2030. Kusina ng Kalinga (KnK) is a proud member of this striving community to improve food production and distribution, to repurpose food surplus, to curb malnutrition and to reduce hunger incidences caused by crises. The proposal to deploy Mobile Community Kitchens as a pre-positioning mechanism for disaster relief response in Eastern Samar, one of the most disaster-prone areas in the country, was launched last November 17, 2021 in 3 pilot areas – Hernani, Jipapad and San Julian.

We are extending our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Karlo Nograles and to all those who made this initiative a reality. Your selflessness has made a significant impact on the lives of 300 kids in Barangay Carmen, Hernani, Eastern Samar. May your kindness inspire others to join in the noble cause of leaving no child behind.

Join us in this cause to end hunger because “Hunger ends where caring begins”.
