Food For The Poor began in 1982 in Jamaica. Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 15 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid.
HUNGER AND POVERTY RELIEF IS OUR PURPOSE
Our purpose is to bring urgent relief to vulnerable families affected by poverty. We designed our assistance programs to empower our beneficiaries to become self-sufficient and ultimately inspire them to build strong communities so their members can help each other. We constantly seek simple, efficient strategies to fight hunger and poverty without adversely impacting our aid recipients or their country. Our short-term focus is to demonstrate that poverty is not inevitable and that people can break out of poverty with the proper assistance. We partner with subject matter experts, local and international NGOs, universities and colleges, churches, and service organizations to achieve our goal.
HUNGER RELIEF
Our food distribution programs provide food to those who cannot afford it or lack access to nutritious meals regardless of their religion or background. Our hunger relief efforts require the implementation of complex food distribution logistics that involve warehousing, transportation to remote areas, establishing distribution centers, community gardens, and agricultural development projects aimed at increasing local food production.
POVERTY RELIEF
We expanded our hunger relief programs to include poverty interventions to have a lasting impact on the families we help. These programs aim to address the root causes of poverty and improve the overall well-being of impoverished individuals and communities. The initiatives include job training programs, microfinance initiatives, access to education and healthcare, and infrastructure development.
Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve.
We strive to reflect God’s unconditional love. It’s a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us
to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God’s grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.
