Mission

Feed The Children is a Christian, international relief organization that delivers food, medicine, clothing and other necessities to individuals, children and families who lack these essentials due to famine, war, poverty or natural disaster. Since our founding in 1979, we have grown into one of the world's largest private organizations dedicated to helping hungry and hurting people. Last year, Feed The Children shipped 129 million pounds of food and other essentials to children and families in all 50 states and in 43 foreign countries, supplementing more than 730,000 meals a day worldwide. Since our founding Feed The Children has reached out to help children and families in 118 countries around the globe. A key goal is to help families in need move past needing help and into becoming self-sufficient members of their community.
