Excellent charity which, as it's name suggests, feeds the poor. It also sends hygiene kits to the needy ... including abroad (overseas).

This non profit did a fundraising event on the Christian radio station to build houses for the poor in Haiti. After donating, they sent me a pic of the house with the single Mom and young child standing in front of the home. So happy God has used this company to be the hands and feet of Christ. I highly recommend to donate to this organization. You will make a lasting impact in lives forever. God bless this non profit! ❤️🙏

How much of what I send goes to feed the poor. How much goes to the over head of this business. Thank You!

Albenis Harrigan | Sep 28, 2018

A little over 95% of every donation goes directly to the poor. Since we do so much things ourselves we are able to keep the administrative cost at under 5%. We not only feed the poor.

How much of the money goes to the kids?

Bill Hawkins | Sep 28, 2019
Max W | Sep 28, 2019

They claim that over 96% of all donations goes toward the charity. One of the lowest administrative ratios of all charities that I have come across!!! So for every dollar you give, at least $0.96 goes toward their causes. A dollar well spent I'f you ask me.

is this food pantry for anyone who is in need of food?

Stephanie Limongelli | Sep 28, 2018
Arlene Brosky | Sep 28, 2018

This is not a food pantry. They deal with some of the poorest countries (17) and distribute the food in quantities to a church for example. They in turn redistribute to those in need. Calvary Chapel helps those in need regarding food to a certain degree. There are many avenues in which to choose from, you just have to search the internet. This is not one of them for the people here in South Florida.

Can I donate items like car seat, stroller, toys, clothes...

Rose Singleton | Sep 28, 2018
Albenis Harrigan | Sep 28, 2018

Maybe not the car seat, but the other items yes, in good condition.
