Help Our Cause 'Rise Against Hunger'
Imagine seeing your children starving and having nothing to feed them...820 million people around the world go hungry each year. For $34, you can provide 100 meals through 'rise against hunger' program through our charity foundation. You will be provided 501 c3 tax deductible receipts for your donation within 30 days.
Meal Packaging:
The assembly process combines rice, soy, dehydrated vegetables and a micronutrient flavoring mix formulated by Kraft Heinz Company Foundation that includes 20 essential vitamins and minerals. The cost of each meal is typically 34 cents. The food has a shelf-life of two years. Rise Against Hunger provides over 70% of its meals to support transformational development programs such as school lunch programs, vocational training programs, early childhood development programs, orphanages, and medical clinics. Working with these programs helps enhance lives by giving beneficiaries the opportunity to break the cycle of poverty through education, skills development, and healthcare while also receiving much-needed nutrition
