About ARK - Advancement for Rural Kids

Advancement for Rural Kids (ARK) partners with rural communities to create a path to secure their food, kids’ schooling and a sustainable future. Our claim to fame is our innovative P2.50 school lunch, the world’s first & only self-sustaining school lunch. As the pandemic closed down schools and made communities at-risk for hunger and strife, ARK pivoted and created Feed Back - a neighborhood vegetable exchange. This program enables communities to source their food from within and generate excess to sell to nearby villages and towns. We like to break the mold and looking for badass talent who does the same. Join ARK at the leading edge of social impact: believe in our partners, create markets, and solve for true sustainability and a clear exit.
