Do you provide aid for children/families in the U.S.?
Although our main focus is on feeding starving children abroad, we also help children and their families within the U.S. The recommendation we give to our food packaging centers (we call them "satellites") is to ship 2/3 of the packaged meals abroad and have 1/3 of them remain within the local community. Some of our satellites focus almost exclusively on helping children and their families in the U.S., e.g. through outreach to inner city families, homeless people, Native American reservations, seniors, and children.
Kids Against Hunger – Fox Valley donates 10% of the production for local needs. Most of this is distributed through the Humanitarian Service Project in Carol Stream. Even though DuPage County is one of the richest in America there are still hungry people that need to be fed while we focus on the greater needs in Nicaragua and elsewhere.
