<div><strong>Breakfast for Maitreya School – Bodhgaya, India</strong>
</div>
<div><em>(Versión en español más abajo)</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every morning, before classes begin, 285 children walk through the gates of their school in Bodhgaya, India.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Some have eaten.
</div>
<div>Some have not.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You cannot always see it.
</div>
<div>They sit down. They wait. They try to focus.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Hunger does not make noise.</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>But it weighs.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>At Maitreya School — the free school of the Root Institute — many students come from families whose income depends on informal and unstable work. There are mornings when there is simply no food before school.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And still, they come.
</div>
<div>They come to learn.
</div>
<div>They come because school is a safe place.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Before the first lesson starts, something simple changes the atmosphere:
</div>
<div>a banana, peanuts — and, when possible, an egg.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is not a large meal.
</div>
<div>It is not abundance.
</div>
<div>It is just enough for the body to wake up and the mind to concentrate.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The classroom settles.
</div>
<div>Energy shifts.
</div>
<div>The day begins differently.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A breakfast does not change everything.
</div>
<div>But it changes something very important: how the morning starts.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why we are fundraising</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Right now, we are able to offer breakfast several days per week.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But not every school day is secured yet.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Our goal is clear and concrete:</strong>
</div>
<div>to make sure every child receives breakfast every school day, consistently and reliably.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Not just today.
</div>
<div>But tomorrow.
</div>
<div>And throughout the school year.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Because what truly creates stability is not only food —
</div>
<div>it is knowing that breakfast will be there every morning.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What does it cost?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Here, very little goes a long way.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>A vegan breakfast costs approximately €0.10 per child.</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>With egg, approximately €0.20 per child.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That means:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>• €5 helps 25 children start the day nourished</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>• €40 supports one child for the entire school year</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>• €100 provides breakfast for 50 children for a full week</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>All figures are approximate and may vary slightly depending on local food prices.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>There are no intermediaries.
</div>
<div>Every contribution goes directly to purchasing and preparing food.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Why it matters</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hunger is not dramatic.
</div>
<div>It does not appear in headlines.
</div>
<div>It is quiet.
</div>
<div>Daily.
</div>
<div>Repeated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And it affects something essential: the ability to learn with focus and calm.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Breakfast is energy.
</div>
<div>It is attention.
</div>
<div>It is dignity.
</div>
<div>It is starting the day knowing someone thought of you.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping each morning begin with more calm, more strength, and more dignity. 
</div>
<div><br />

<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>ES</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Cada mañana, antes de que empiecen las clases, 285 niñas y niños cruzan la puerta de su escuela en Bodhgaya, India.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Algunos han desayunado.
</div>
<div>Otros no.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No siempre se nota a simple vista.
</div>
<div>Se sientan. Esperan. Intentan concentrarse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>El hambre no hace ruido.</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>Pero pesa.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>En Maitreya School, la escuela gratuita del Root Institute, muchos alumnos vienen de familias cuyo trabajo es informal e inestable. Hay mañanas en las que simplemente no hay nada antes de salir hacia la escuela.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Y aun así, vienen.
</div>
<div>Vienen a aprender.
</div>
<div>Vienen porque la escuela es un lugar seguro.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Antes de la primera clase, algo sencillo cambia el ambiente:
</div>
<div>un plátano, cacahuetes — y, cuando es posible, un huevo.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No es una gran comida.
</div>
<div>No es abundancia.
</div>
<div>Es lo justo para que el cuerpo despierte y la mente pueda concentrarse.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El aula se calma.
</div>
<div>La energía cambia.
</div>
<div>El día empieza distinto.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Un desayuno no lo cambia todo.
</div>
<div>Pero cambia algo muy importante: cómo comienza la mañana.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Por qué estamos recaudando fondos</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Actualmente podemos ofrecer desayuno varios días a la semana.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pero todavía no todos los días están asegurados.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Nuestro objetivo es muy concreto:
</div>
<div>que cada niña y cada niño reciba desayuno todos los días de clase, de forma estable y continua.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No solo hoy.
</div>
<div>También mañana.
</div>
<div>Y durante todo el curso escolar.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Porque lo que realmente da estabilidad no es solo comer —
</div>
<div>es saber que el desayuno estará ahí cada mañana.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>¿Cuánto cuesta?</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Aquí, muy poco hace mucho.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Un desayuno vegano cuesta aproximadamente 0,10 € por niño.</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>Con huevo, aproximadamente 0,20 € por niño.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Eso significa que:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>• 5 € permiten que 25 niños desayunen una mañana</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>• 40 € cubren el desayuno de un niño durante todo el curso escolar</strong>
</div>
<div><strong>• 100 € financian el desayuno de 50 niños durante una semana completa</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Todas las cifras son aproximadas y pueden variar ligeramente según el precio local de los alimentos.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No hay intermediarios.
</div>
<div>Cada euro se destina directamente a la compra y preparación del desayuno.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Por qué importa
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>El hambre no siempre se ve.
</div>
<div>No sale en las noticias.
</div>
<div>No es una emergencia espectacular.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Es algo silencioso.
</div>
<div>Diario.
</div>
<div>Repetido.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Y afecta a algo esencial: la capacidad de aprender con atención y tranquilidad.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Un desayuno es energía.
</div>
<div>Es concentración.
</div>
<div>Es dignidad.
</div>
<div>Es empezar el día sabiendo que alguien ha pensado en ti.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Gracias por ayudarnos a que cada mañana empiece con más calma, más energía y más dignidad. 
</div>
