In a world full of hunger, there is a story that needs to be told…
Food for Maya and her children – Food makes children Happy.
The heart of our Food for the Poor project is the very necessity of food distribution in Nepal. Ending hunger is one of the greatest challenges of our times. With the power of generosity a donor can sponsor food to a poor person, a mother, a child, or a disabled person.
Generosity is at the heart of caring and sharing with others and enables a holistic human connection. Several studies have shown that helping others has significant benefits – from making the body “glow” to reducing stress and anxiety to living longer! Regardless of the amount of the donation, it’s the intention that counts.

The crucial art of learning caring and sharing for children
It is indeed a fact that children do not understand the concept of sharing. In their own little world, it is all about them, and therefore, they generally do not make it a habit to share or care for others. However, when they grow up into a young school-going child, they have to learn to share as a part of their social, emotional, and cognitive development. It is important to teach children the value and importance of sharing so that they grow up into balanced adults who enjoy helping and caring others, without discriminating anyone.

Most of the children and adolescents left out of Nepal’s progress are denied many of the same rights simultaneously.
Weak health systems and poverty play a role in keeping nutritious food out of reach of families, handicapped people and children.
Even though overall poverty is decreasing, two-thirds of the children are still deprived of at least one of seven basic needs. According to United Nations Development Programme, Human Development Report, Nepal is the third poorest among 58 countries in Asia with the sixth lowest human development ranking.

What are the health risks of not eating enough?
If you are not getting enough calories, chances are you are not getting enough vitamins and minerals either. Nutritional deficiencies may cause a long list of health complications including, but not limited to, anaemia, infertility, bone loss, poor dental health and decreased thyroid function.
That is why we talk about life-saving food.
A regular, recurring donation is a guarantee for food for the poor.
No matter the size of your donation, if you make it a regular, recurring donation, you are helping Food for the Poor Nepal and the poor people in Nepal who depend on your donation. It really helps enormously in reducing the risk of malnutrition, disease and premature death.
