Many people around the world are in desperate need. Poverty, death, disease, and disasters wreak havoc in the lives of millions. As Christian Nonprofit, Feed The Children strives to help bring relief.

Many times little children are the ones who suffer the most from these problems, and they are the ones most desperately in need of your help.

Helping Hungry Children and Families in the United States

Feed The Children believes that no child should go to bed hungry in this blessed and plentiful country. There are many ways that we try to feed those in desperate need right here in America.

You are helping us making an important difference in the lives of families for whom hunger and need are daily realities.

How You Can Make a Difference

Feeding Programs

There are millions of starving children right here in the U.S. We have the food you can help us get it into the hands of hungry boys and girls across America. Become a member of our feeding programs, Club 1000 or Child 50, today to end the pain of hunger for boys and girls in this country right now.

Children across the country are going without food and other necessities year round, but there is something you can do about it.

Disaster Relief

Because of our fleet of semi-tractor trailer trucks, Feed The Children is often the first relief agency to bring help after a disaster. The most recent example of this was when we sent over 500 truckloads of supplies to children and families affected by the hurricanes that hit the Gulf Coast. Help us be ready when disaster strikes.

Sponsor a Child

Child sponsorship allows you to personally connect with a child in need while making a lasting investment in his/her future. Your donation also strengthens your child’s local community, ensuring an extended network of support and a safe environment in which your child can thrive.

>> Sign up online as a child sponsor today!

You will receive a photo and personal profile of the child you are sponsoring, updates on his/her wellbeing, and notes, drawings or correspondence from your child, at least twice a year.* You will also have the opportunity to send notes and small gifts to your child.

Your monthly sponsorship provides your child with things like nourishing food, educational books and supplies, medical care and other items for their personal wellbeing, including wheelchairs, in the case of disabled children.Click to Sponsor A Child Today

For only $30 a month, you can change the life of a child.
Or for $35 a month, you can bring hope to a disabled child.

A portion of your monthly child sponsorship donation goes toward community development programs in the area where your child lives. By investing in the local community, we can help ensure that sponsored children receive:

  • Clean drinking water
  • Safe play areas
  • HIV/AIDS medications for families impacted by the disease
  • Local health clinics

Child sponsorship provides more than just short-term hunger relief—it provides total quality of life (improved heath, better education, a reduced risk of HIV/AIDS, higher earning potential, etc.) and a brighter future for your sponsored child.

*In the case of physically disabled children, please understand that written correspondence may not be possible.

The Abandoned Baby Center began as a response to a horrific problem: Every 10 minutes a baby is orphaned or abandoned in Kenya, their parents lost to epidemics, violence and poverty.

"There was no place in the area that provided the kind of intensive, one-on-one care abandoned babies need," Frances Jones, Abandoned Baby Center (ABC) co-founder says. "And innocent little ones were dying. We had to do something."

The Kenya Abandoned Baby Center opened in August 2001 to address this terrible situation. Many of the babies are brought to us barely alive. They come with nothing -- no names -- not even birthdays. But here at the ABC, they're given new life and real hope for a brighter future!

Staffed with medical and child-development professionals, our ABC is equipped to help meet the special needs of these babies, beginning with nourishing food, critical medical care and a loving home!

This innovative five-acre facility, on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya, has a medical center, playrooms and care cottages to help babies recover, grow and thrive.

Our Abandoned Baby Center is much more than a children's home. It is a lifesaving haven.
