Emma Stoats and Mary’s Meals have teamed up for Mary’s Meals Porridge Smiles campaign and they need your help to make a hungry child smile with porridge!
Mary’s Meals operate their largest school feeding programmes in Malawi and Liberia. Here the children receive vitamin-enriched maize porridge every school day. World Porridge Day celebrates the difference that this daily mug of porridge makes to the lives of these children.
World Porridge Day is on 10th October and Stoats and Mary’s Meals want to see your porridge smiles.
How to get involved:
Step 1
Create a smiley face or character in your porridge.
Step 2
Text ‘OATS17 £2’ to 70070 to give £2 to Mary’s Meals and provide a hungry child with meals in school for a month.
Step 3
Snap a picture of your Porridge Smile, share it on social media using #PorridgeSmiles and encourage others to do the same!
Another way to raise money is to host a Porridge Smiles party this October.
You can have a Porridge Smiles party at home, school or work throughout October to raise money for Mary’s meals. World Porridge Day is Tuesday 10 October this year, but you can have your party anytime in October. Just get a few friends together, make porridge with some #porridgesmiles.
