A group of workers from a social dining room sings the iconic song “Pena, Penita, Pena”, by Lola Flores, while starting her day, dress with their uniforms and prepare all the foods that will serve. After the door, a girl waits to fill her tray with which she is probably her only food of the day.

It is the raw scene created by the agency Easy To get the message from the non -profit organization EDUCO. Under the motto “We don’t want to be sorry, we want to feed them” It seeks to make visible the reality of the thousands of minors of school age who each course run out of option to go to the dining room of their centers for lack of resources. According to the organization, 1 in 3 families requesting the dining scholarship in Spain do not receive it.

As the CLAIM of the campaign expresses, the objective of Educo is not to be sorry, but to move and mobilize society with the intention of guarantee the right to feed the most vulnerable childhood.

The school dining room is part of the right to education and should be universal”, Says Pilar Orenes, general director of Educo, in a statement.”While that does not happen, we need the support of committed people to ensure that children from families without resources can eat at school, because you cannot learn with an empty stomach
