🚚❤️ Hope Is on the Way to Haiti! ❤️🚚

What an incredible day of service, partnership, and purpose!

Recently, Food for Kidz joined forces with our amazing partners at Feed My Lambs to load a container filled with life-changing supplies destined for an orphanage in Haiti. These essential items will help provide nourishment, comfort, and support to children who need it most.

A special thank you to Feed My Lambs Ministry - Bermuda Founder Philip Rego, along with Mike and John Gaska, who worked side-by-side with Food for Kidz team members John, JJ, and Tanner to make this shipment possible.

Together, we loaded:
🍚 Food for Kidz Rice & Bean Meals
🥣 Oatmeal
🍝 Pasta
⚡ Generators
👟 Shoes
👕 Clothing
📦 And so much more!

Every box packed and every item loaded represents hope, compassion, and the love of people who care enough to make a difference. Thanks to this partnership, children at the orphanage will receive vital resources that help meet everyday needs and remind them they are not forgotten.

We love seeing what can happen when organizations, volunteers, donors, and community supporters unite around a common mission: feeding hungry children, caring for vulnerable families, and sharing hope across the world.

None of this would be possible without the generosity and dedication of so many people. Thank you for helping us extend our reach and impact lives far beyond our own communities.

🎬 Preview Drop: 100 for the Hungry

This is your first look at 100 for the Hungry, featuring Dr. Trent Neisen, who took on an incredible challenge—running 100 miles to help raise funds for 100,000 meals.

His dedication is a powerful reminder of what can happen when one person turns compassion into action.

This is just a preview. The full video will be released soon, sharing the story behind the run and the impact it will have on children and families facing hunger.

❤️ Stay tuned and join us in the mission to provide hope, one meal at a time.

“Food for Kidz is such a wonderful organization with a mission to feed the mouths of children locally and globally. I packed food 20 years ago when it was just beginning, and I was so excited to get my daughter involved now that she is the same age that I first did it…” Kassi from Hutchinson, MN

Moments like these remind us that the impact of serving together can last for generations ❤️

At Food for Kidz, we’re passionate about bringing communities together to help feed children both near and far. Seeing parents return years later with their own children is what makes this mission so special.

Would your church, school, business, or community group like to host a meal packing event? We’d love to come to your area and help make it happen!
