Our Food Bank develops the Nutrition Education Program (PEN) "Knowledge that Feeds".
We started the activity in 2007 promoting educational activities in nutrition at the headquarters of social organizations with a pilot in a social organization where 3 PEN workshops were offered to 15 mothers.
Today, with the objective of promoting social development by educating about good food practices, we carry out workshops with themes related to: healthy eating, hygienic handling of food, rich and nutritious cooking, also holding demonstration workshops.
At present, 239 workshops have been developed, reaching 1,057 trained people.
