Within the next three years, Matter will expand access to health and food next door and around the world by:1. Providing restorative medical aid to 1,500,000 people 2. Providing healthy food to 10,000,000 people 3. Engaging 100 companies as “Companies that Matter"4. Fundraising $5,000,000 Strategic Imperatives:1. HEALTH:• Work with both large hospitals and small clinics to improve healthcare results in the following key areas: o Reduce maternal mortality ratios in each of the hospitals with which Matter partners. * o Reduce newborn mortality ratios in each of the hospitals Matter engages. ** o Reduce premature mortality from cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. ***• Develop 5 medical centers of excellence on 3 continents that serve 1. 3 million patients over three years. * Reducing the ratio of maternal mortality to less than 70 per 100,000 live births is a 2030 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG). **Reducing newborn mortality 70% to prevent 2 million newborn deaths annually is a 2030 SDG. *** Reducing non-communicable diseases by 1/3 can save 5 million lives annually and is a 2030 SDG. 82% of non-communicable diseases occur in low income communities, and cardiovascular diseases and diabetes account for 2 of the top 4 killers. 2. FOOD:• Lower child malnutrition in developing countries on 3 continents. *• Boost agriculture yields by investing in rural agriculture infrastructure in developing countries. **• Expand access to healthy food in non-traditional ways. **** One of the 2030 SDGs is to lower chronic child malnutrition by 40%. This goal will prevent malnutrition in 68 million children annually. ** Boosting agriculture yields 40% by investing in rural agriculture infrastructure is a 2030 SDG, thus increasing the amount of healthy food in communities facing scarcity. *** There are now more obese people in the world than undernourished and starving combined3. COMMUNITY IMPACT:• Recruit top corporations/organizations to engage in volunteer events that provide employees with meaningful, team-building opportunities to give back to the local community• Work with top corporations/organizations to host MatterBox packaging events4.

(# of meals estimated: 1 million over 3 years. Each box has an average meal equivalent of 13. 34 meals. )- 15,000 in 2015 (run rate of 3750 of boxes in the 4th quarter of 2015)- 25,000 in 2016- 35,000 in 20173. COMMUNITY IMPACT• Matter will leverage the Matter oard to gain introductions into companies• Matter will seek to leverage companies' interest to connect with their communities and connect with

Through a variety of local projects, including targeted nutrition and food distribution, Matter strives to offer not just meals, but specifically healthy food to people facing food insecurity. The organization primarily distributes fresh produce, shelf-stable goods, personal care and basic needs items to other non-profit entities who serve people living in scarcity. Internationally, Matter provides restorative aid - particularly in the fields of health, education, and farming - by supplying developing medical facilities, schools, orphanages, and agricultural operations with the equipment and supplies they need to thrive sustainably. Matter also works to empower community members and businesses to see the value of what is in their own two hands and create a world where we all matter more via engagement in team-building and service learning experiences - such as medical supply sorting, food packing, and the participation in Matter's interactive educational exhibit.

Matter was inspired by a simple vision: viewing corporate surplus as an opportunity, not a problem. By seeing the value of what is in our own two hands, Matter has always stood at the crossroads of faith and opportunity. Fifteen years later, we maintain the simplicity of our original vision, and now focus our expertise on expanding access to health and food, next door and around the world. In the areas of health and food, Matter understands the need and intentionally brings the appropriate resources to the need, most often via a box. From the ready-to-eat healthy meals distributed locally through nontraditional means, to pre-owned medical equipment shipped to equip new or established hospitals, Matter is able to provide restorative aid by procuring and delivering appropriate materials to those living in scarcity. As opposed to a push model – take in any resources available and push them out to people somewhat independent of what the true needs are – Matter is moving to a pull model which provides more value and respect to the recipients in that it gets them what they truly need. In the intertwined fields of health and food, Matter focuses our efforts in order to become known as experts primarily in two program areas: the MATTERbox, and the Hospital & Clinic program. In both program areas, Matter leverages valued partner organizations to receive and distribute the items needed to make a difference. The innovative MATTERbox program strives to fill the meal-gap in Minnesota by supplying healthy food boxes to non-traditional partner organizations who are already working with those facing food insecurity. When completing international projects, Matter partners with well-established in-country organizations to ensure the goods are properly received and employed.

MATTERboxes are shelf-stable, ready-to-eat, healthy food packages, provided through partners to those with acute hunger needs. • Matter's work with Hennepin County Medical Center and Lifetime dietitians and disease experts has enabled us to develop a shelf-stable ready-to-eat healthy food: the MATTERbox. • Matter negotiates and purchases food from suppliers, who provide Matter with wholesale pricing; offering the food suppliers the opportunity to co-brand the boxes can further lower the cost of the purchased food. • Corporations, churches, and other organizations who care about health and hunger and are looking for a At Matter, we believe that simple acts of being resourceful can change the world. Fifteen years ago Dennis and Megan Doyle began simply using what they had in their own two hands to serve our community. In 2015, we didn't just maintain the vision they had, we grew it. Our team is focused on expanding access to health all over the world. In Minneapolis we come alongside those who are challenged by underemployment and homelessness to provide the healthy food they need to thrive. When places such as Liberia are stricken with crisis, we send relief meals to help those who are suffering through Ebola and lack the nutrition they need to survive. In Kenya, Africa, 50,000 people live off of the city dump with almost no access to health care in a place called, Dandora. Women have been giving birth in a pile of garbage. In partnership with the University of Notre Dame, we equipped a hospital so mothers can be provided the comfort and dignity to have their babies on a bed, in a room. The chance of survival for the babies born is greatly increased. Never before have we seen the food and health sectors work so closely together to solve some of the greatest challenges in our world. The Doyle's vision has become increasingly relevant over the last 15 years. The call to matter more is being accomplished and impacting multiple thousands of people across the globe. None of this work is possible without your generous support. Thousands of volunteers, donors, board members and staff collaborate to grow the vision of Matter. The work is not in vain. Matter was named the fastest growing non profit in Minnesota in 2014. Thank you for running alongside us in this journey.
