Feed My Starving Children Donation For Haiti

Reiser Relief Inc. donates $10,000 to Feed My Starving Children. President and Founder, Father Bernard Reiser presented a check on February 2, 2010 to Mark Crea, Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) Executive Director.

Recent donations made to Reiser Relief is being used to send immediate relief to children in Haiti suffering with diarrhea. FMSC has an exclusive one of a kind formula designed specifically for people with diarrhea, particularly children under two years old. The food packet is called the MannaPack Potato, a fortified potato and soy protein meal package that costs 13 cents. The $10,000 donation will pay for 76,923 meals of MannaPack Potato for Haiti. The MannaPack potato is a 'first food' designed specifically for malnourished children with diarrhea. Diarrhea is the number 1 cause of death of malnourished children. Feed My Starving Children's original rice-based formula MannaPack Potato is produced by volunteers. The food-packing process offers a tangible service opportunity for children and adults and adds a human touch to the international food aid. To schedule a volunteer time visit www.mnsc.org. In 2008, more than 310,000 volunteers joined FMSC to package 73.6 million meals for children around the world, and in 2009 19 million more meals were produced than in 2008.

Feed My Starving Children (FMSC) will strive to eliminate starvation in children throughout the world by helping to instill compassion in people to hear and respond to the cries of those in need. Feed My Starving Children provides a team-building environment where people of all ages can come together for a common cause: packing nutritious, life-saving meals for starving children. These meals are then shipped to more than 60 countries around the world, truly offering hope to the hungry.
