AND FINALLY Kent Blazill supports Mary’s Meals again in 2019


Always keen to support worthy charities, the caring staff at Kent Blaxill builders’ merchants have gathered together a total of 16 backpacks for Mary’s Meals. The charity are currently feeding over 1,504,471 children. Mary’s Meals is a charity that works in a simple but effective way. It works to provide a daily meal in school, so helping to meet the immediate needs of hungry children and encourage them to gain an education. Their biggest operation is in Malawi where they are reaching 30% of the country’s entire primary school population.


Organisers Monica Hartley and Carol Evers have been collecting the equipment to fill the backpacks and other members of staff have contributed towards the content. These backpacks not only contain school equipment and hygiene items but an outfit and shoes for the children to wear on the often-long walk to school.
