Seibo Japan
NPO
NPO Seibo is a nonprofit organisation based in Japan with a mission to provide a hot school meal to every hungry child in the world. Since its founding in 2015, Seibo has focused on school feeding programmes in partnership with local communities in Malawi, one of the world’s poorest countries. Today, thanks to the support of donors in Japan and over 30 x school partnerships across Japan, Seibo provides over 3.5 million meals annually to over 20,000 children.
With an office in Tokyo, Seibo combines charitable purpose with social enterprise to ensure sustainable funding for its work in Malawi. Using coffee sourced from Malawi and roasted in Tokyo, Seibo operates a not-for-profit coffee company whose proceeds directly support both Malawian coffee farmers and schoolchildren in Malawi.
Alongside its fundraising activities, Seibo also works closely with partner schools and universities across Japan to deepen awareness of global issues such as poverty and ethical consumption. In recognition of this work, Seibo received the prestigious Social Contribution Award in 2022. In 2024, its coffee brand, Warm Hearts Coffee Club, was honoured with a Social Products Award for its outstanding charitable impact.
In addition to school feeding in Malawi, Seibo also supports a daily meal at a Tokyo-based school that exists to remove the stigma of child poverty for families struggling to send their children to school or provide meals.
