Buying one World Food Programme FEED bag feeds a child in school for one school year.

School feeding acts as a magnet, dramatically increasing enrollment, sometimes by as much as 100 percent. It also improves performance at school; children concentrate better on a full stomach. Girls who go to school not only marry later but have half as many children than illiterate women. Furthermore, these children are healthier and better educated.


19 cents a day or 34 dollars a year can transform a child's life and provide the tools for a lifetime of self-reliance. School feeding is a simple but effective way to beat hunger and poverty.

These are great! I had no idea they put a child through school too. I am going to Whole Foods today to pick one up.

1 FEED bag = 1 child fed for 1 school year

The FEED bag is designed to raise awareness and funds for hungry children and to help them get into school and out of hunger. Each FEED bag sold will provide a school year of meals for one child in need and give them the hope of an education and a regular meal. Whether you tote your FEED bag to school, work, play, or shop, remember that your bag helped to FEED and educate one child for one school year.

TOMS Shoes is a shoe company with a simple One for One business model: For every pair you purchase, TOMS will give away a pair of shoes to a child in need. Since 2006, TOMS has given away over 100,000 pairs of shoes, and in the next twelve months, they will give away an additional 300,000 pairs of shoes to children around the world!

They also fund other one for one projects, like this personal favorite of mine
