Fueling Dreams Milk for Vulnerable Kids in Uruguay

As we close 2025, we are proud to share the full impact your generosity made possible throughout the year. Thanks to your support, we delivered 96,550 glasses of powdered milk and 184,250 glasses of fresh milk, reaching 69 community-based organizations across different regions of Uruguay.

Behind these numbers are thousands of children and families who were able to start their day with nourishment and stability. Milk continues to be a key component of breakfasts, afternoon snacks, and daily meals served in schools, community centers, and social programs — often representing the most consistent source of nutrition children receive.

One partner organization shared:

“The support we receive from the Food Bank is essential to our center. It allows us to provide consistent, nutritious meals to the children we serve, and that support makes a lasting difference.”

Reaching 69 organizations reflects not only growth, but trust — a shared commitment to ensuring food reaches those who need it most, efficiently and with dignity.

As we begin a new year, we once again turn to the generosity of our community. With your continued support, our goal is to surpass these figures, reach even more organizations, and help more people across Uruguay access nutritious food.

From all of us at Banco de Alimentos Uruguay, thank you for walking this path with us. Your support turns compassion into action — glass by glass, family by family.

In 2025, thanks to your generous support, 92,045 glasses of milk were delivered to 49 community-based organizations across Uruguay. This means tens of thousands of children received a nutritious glass of milk — a simple act that makes a real difference in their lives.

These glasses aren’t just about nutrition. They’re part of school mornings, afternoon snacks, and warm meals at shelters and community centers. For many of the children we serve, this is often the most reliable source of nutrients they receive in a day.

One of our partner organizations shared:

“The support we receive from the Food Bank is essential to the work we do at our center. It allows us to provide our children with consistent, nutritious meals — and that means everything.”

Your donations help ensure that children throughout Uruguay have access to the nourishment they need to grow, learn, and thrive. With your continued support, we’re committed to reaching even more families in need.

We’re also preparing for upcoming matching campaigns on GlobalGiving — an amazing opportunity to amplify your impact. We’ll share more details soon!

From all of us at Banco de Alimentos Uruguay and the 49 organizations we work with: thank you for making this possible — one glass, one child, one smile at a time.
