In June, I had the opportunity to travel to Kenya to visit rural schools, surrounded by farmland, that are enrolled in our Feed for Knowledge project implemented in partnership with Rural Family Hope.

Guest blogger Scott Chapman, a multisite franchise partner with Zambrero, shares his experience going on a vision trip to Kenya with Rise Against Hunger to visit feeding programs supported by the nonprofit.
