Hi Tia,
This is a great start!
We have a literature review on School Feeding Programs (attached here) that I did a few months ago and incorporates some of the information from the WFP. They provide great information! USAID also has good info.
I'm going to try to open a wiki so that all the links can be put in one place - still have to figure out how to use it...
But as we find more programs that operate in Uganda or information on the costs of a program in Uganda, we can place them in the wiki.
Thanks and keep up the search!

Hi Everyone,
We need some volunteers to gather information on organizations working in Uganda that offer school feeding programs. If anyone has any information or contacts, or would like to gather research on this, please do so!

The two young ladies who were to present their report on Malaria in Busukuma stood up and looked into the lecture room. The room was full with chatting students who had already attended a number of lectures. Nobody stopped talking until suddenly, the buzzing sound of a mosquito made everybody silent. “What is this?” asked the student behind me to his neighbour. While the students in the lecture room were still wondering what was happening, the two ladies in front clapped their hands as if they killed the mosquito and the sound stopped.

One of the Local Rep's that I work with in Nepal was able to secure 3000 books for their school library simply by contacting local publishing houses in Nepal. This prompted me to look for resources within Uganda that you might contact. So far, I came up with these:
