The formulation of these meals was the result of the combined efforts of executives and researchers from Cargill, Pillsbury, General Mills, and Archer Daniels Midland. These scientists formulated a good that would meet all the nutritional requirements of severely malnourished children for physical growth and mental development.
The result was the creation of a balanced, high-nutrition food that can reverse the starvation process and restore a child's health and mental alertness.
The meal ingredients are formulated by food scientists to provide a rich source of easily digestible protein, carbohydrates and vitamins needed by an undernourished child's body and mind. The food is also acceptable to the broad diversity of ethnic tastes and religious differences around the world. The food offers all 9 of the essential amino acids required for complete nutrition; something that can't be said about other typical food relief sources such as rice or beans alone. it is also very simple to prepare: requiring only one cup of boiling water to make a complete meal.
Thanks to the generous gifts of several donors, we raised the money to ship the first container with 285,000 meals to the Central Africal Republic. As noted in a previous post, the African children loved the meals.
We recently shipped another container to our Dominican Republic orphanages. Recent hurricanes wreaked havoc on the island and it's people. Thankfully, our orphanages were not affected by the earthquake that leveled Port au Prince, Haiti.
Can we Count on You?
It takes 150 people, donating $150 each to ship one container of food. Each $150 gift will provide 1,900 healthy meals to orphans.
Will you become one of the "Special 150" and make a gift to ship this wonderful miracle of highly-nutritious food to the orphans who need it desperately?
