Feeding children around the corner and around the world
Feeding children around the corner
and around the world - because
Hunger won't wait
A Call to Action for Oklahomans
Kids Against Hunger partnered with Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin on her Feeding Oklahoma project first in 2011, when Gov. Fallin invited us to go to the Capitol in Oklahoma City in November where volunteers assembled the high-nutrition food packages.
A total of 120,000 meals were given to the Community Food Bank of Eastern Oklahoma in Tulsa in the last two years (2011 and 2012) in order to provide food to the hungry during the holiday season. The food bank has requested that they have Kids Against Hunger food at all times during the year.
According to statistics released by the USDA, Oklahoma is the fourth hungriest state in the nation. One out of every five children in Oklahoma is at risk of going to bed hungry every night. NO CHILD - whether in Haiti or in Oklahoma - should every have to go to bed with an empty stomach.
YOU can make a difference by providing meals for the hungry! Please go to our Donate page and make a generous contribution to this effort. For every dollar you donate, four nutritious meals can be provided.
The food package
Each packet contains long-grain, high-quality, water-polished white rice, textured soy (52% protein) containing nine vitamins and minerals, six dehydrated vegetables, and chicken flavoring plus 21 vitamins and minerals.
This nutrient -rich formula was designed especially for this feeding program and will reverse the starvation process in the human body. Each bag contains six servings and is prepared in 20 minutes by adding it to boiling water.
