Fighting Childhood Hunger in Oklahoma City
who we are
Hunger is a critical issue. Since 1979, Feed the Children has been dedicated to tackling it in our hometown of Oklahoma City, the U.S. and around the world. With the generous support of loyal donors and corporate partners, we have provided millions of children and their families with the food and essential resources they need to thrive. By addressing families’ immediate needs and offering long-term solutions, Feed the Children is creating brighter futures and making strides to create a world where no child goes to bed hungry.
We hope you will join us.
1 in every 4 children in Oklahoma don’t know where their next meal will come from.
The Feed Initiative – OKC
Through the Feed Initiative, we work to create a measurable and sustainable impact on child hunger in a targeted community. In addition to layering multiple program interventions that meet families’ immediate need for food assistance, we also develop and test new child hunger programs. Oklahoma City is our first Feed Initiative community with the following two pilot programs:
Our Partner Market, located within our OKC distribution center, provides local nonprofit partners with the opportunity to choose which products will best serve their communities through a grocery store model. Partners can visit the market to “shop” for food, health and hygiene items, cleaning supplies, and more.
Nourishing Bright Futures targets families facing housing transitions or homelessness to receive ongoing support through distribution of food as well as personal care and essential items. To promote long-term food security, wraparound services are also provided through partners.
Feed the Children’s programs meet immediate needs and facilitate sustainable solutions as we work to ensure that no child goes to bed hungry.
What Kind of World do You Want?
There are many ways you can serve your community and be a vital part of Feed the Children’s mission. Together, we can bring food, essentials – and hope to families that need our support.
