Thirteen-year-old Molly invites the world into her world, as she chronicles her life in one of Kenya’s poorest slums.

She was given a video camera by the World Food Programme, which asked her to film scenes from her life at home and school.

One of her biggest challenges is access to food, that’s where the WFP comes in.

Molly receives school meals through the United Nations food relief agency.

She’s one of the 20 million children around the world who get a nourishing meal at school from WFP.

Julie Walker talks to WFP Spokesperson Bettina Luescher about Molly and her journey.
