Delivering food, shelter, and hope to the poorest of the poor
Nourish Poor Children
with the Gift of Food
That was the perspective of Saint Teresa of Calcutta, who often spoke of “recognizing Jesus in the distressing disguise of the poor.” Answer our heavenly Father’s command to love — not just in word, but in deed — by providing food to hungry children.
Something amazing happens when you respond with compassion to the suffering of the poor: Your heart will be transformed. You’ll grow closer to our Lord during Lent. And next month, you will experience the joy of Easter in a whole new way.
If you met Maritza, you’d be charmed by her shy smile. And your heart would break at discovering the heavy load she carries as an innocent 11-year-old girl.
Maritza lives with her mother and baby brother in a small rural village in Nicaragua. Many families, like hers, suffer from severe poverty. Her mother struggles to feed the children and herself. Some days they have almost nothing to eat.
See Jesus in the face of a poor child, and help children like Maritza and their families receive their daily bread.
Your prayers and gift will bless Maritza and other vulnerable children and families.

Proceeds from this campaign will be used to cover any expenditures incurred through June 30, 2021, the close of our ministry’s new fiscal year. In the event that more funds are raised than needed to fully fund the project, the excess funds, if any, will be used to meet the most urgent needs of the ministry.
