    "content": "The General Food Distribution/Food for Assets Programme got Kshs3.8 million. Expanded School Feeding Programme got Kshs655,000. Mother and Child Health Programme got Kshs40,000. Supplementary Feeding Programme got Kshs275,000 and Orphans and Vulnerable Children Programme got Kshs5,500. (b) The Kenya Food Security Meeting (KFSM), the Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG) and the District Steering Group (DSG) are structures that were put in place to coordinate the management of food security in the country. The KFSM and the KFSSG are national structures based at the headquarters, while the District Steering Group is based at the districts. Their main purpose is to bring together various stakeholders, Government, UN Agencies and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) with a view to responding to the needs of food-insecure populations by identifying who and where they are, their needs and mobilizing the resources needed. The Kenya Food Security Steering Group (KFSSG) is the technical arm of the Kenya Food Security Meeting (KFSM). It is, therefore, charged with the responsibility of, among others, planning and carrying out food security assessment in the country to establish the food security situation and recommending the necessary intervention measures. These structures have no direct role in the actual distribution of food to the needy people as this is the role played by the lead agencies appointed to manage the distribution in each district benefiting from the programme. The District Steering Group (DSGs) recommends organizations that are qualified as per the stipulated guidelines to appoint the lead agencies."
