About the Programme

The Tiger Brands Foundation has identified the need for a programme that addresses providing the most important meal of the day – breakfast – to learners in no fee schools (Quintile 1, 2 and 3) in vulnerable and impoverished communities. The Foundation is committed to providing an in-school breakfast programme to address child hunger and the associated negative outcomes.

Who can apply?

We work solely with schools in quintile 1, 2 and 3 in vulnerable and impoverished communities. Schools are selected on the following criteria:

  • Population of hungry learners that attend the school
  • Strong School Governing Body (SGB) and School Management Team (SMT)
  • A dedicated principal
  • School must be participants of the NSNP (National School Nutrition Programme)
  • School registration documentations (Please kindly include an application letter addressing the above mentioned criteria; letter from school, school enrollment details, EMIS number, water and lights bill, principals’ details on school letterhead, banking details.)

Three-step application process

  • School enrolment details
  • EMIS number
  • Water and lights bill
  • Principals’ details on school letterhead

Step 2 – Successful first round candidates will be contacted telephonically. If not candidates are not contacted by 31 October 2017. Please consider your application as unsuccessful.
