Hunger in Kenya’s breadbasket

In Kitale, Kenya—an area known as the country’s breadbasket—abundant maize fields stretch to the horizon. Yet hunger persists in nearby villages, where families walk miles asking for food. Missioner Kathy Flatoff joins the Daughters of Charity in their tireless work to feed the poorest of the poor through a small but vital nutrition program. Amid scarcity, rising costs, and heartbreaking choices, their ministry offers a glimpse of God’s presence among those who suffer most.
