Take Away Hunger

Four pounds | one hundred meals

You may be wondering how we can send 100 meals around the world for only £4.

It is made possible through a team effort – A fellow charitable organisation donates food, free of charge -we then cover the transportation costs to strong, established ministries we know and trust. We ensure that large 40ft containers, filled with 920,000 meals, get right to the people who need them most. Thus, it costs only £4 to send 100 meals almost anywhere in the world!

The meals we deliver are a combination of rice, soy, dehydrated vegetables, minerals and vitamins. These highly nutritious meals are designed to be easy and safe to transport; simple to make with only boiling water; and culturally acceptable worldwide. While the meals were designed to save the lives of severely malnourished and starving children, the ingredients will also improve the health, growth and physical wellbeing of children who are no longer in immediate danger of starvation.

We have seen firsthand how a simple daily source of basic nutrition can dramatically improve a child’s life. Little “Mercy” arrived at one of the orphanages at the age of eight months—her mother had died a month earlier.  Mercy was terribly malnourished. But today she’s a healthy and happy little girl. As with so many children who arrive damaged by malnutrition, it was the fortified rice especially that “brought her to life.”

It doesn’t take much to be part of the answer; we can do something to take away hunger, for as little as £4!

For the cost of 1  burger take-away, you can take away hunger for 100 Thai street children! For the cost of       1 Indian take-away, you can take away hunger for 100 abandoned Indian children! For the cost of  a fish and chip take away you can provide 100 hot and nutritious meals for hungry children in Romania!

By partnering with us as a Take-Away Hunger supporter you would be  supporting  over 30,767 children among 20 ministries in 20 countries: in refugee camps near Irene Gleeson in Kitgum Uganda; in orphanages like Charlie Milbrodt’s in North Thailand; among outreaches to street children like Mercy & Grace in India; and the Bread of Life orphanage in Romania. These children not only receive hot nutritious meals every day, but are fed spiritually through the ministry of our partners.

You can help! We can’t do everything, but together we can make a difference to these children in their time of need. Be part of the solution to ending world hunger by becoming part of the team effort by making a regular commitment as a Take-Away Hunger supporter.

Thank you and God bless you for your compassionate gift in response.
