We believe no child should go hungry. Every child deserves a nutritious meal, every day.

What Makes Us Different

Firmly Christ-centered

The Gospel is the reason Feed My Starving Children exists. We strive to follow the will of Jesus Christ every day in all we do.

Pioneering food formulas

FMSC’s nutritious MannaPack™ meal formulas are specifically designed to assist in preventing and reversing undernutrition by providing essential nutrients a child needs to gain strength and health.

Strong in-country partnerships

We donate FMSC meals to an exceptional network of missions and humanitarian organizations that ensure the meals get to those who need them most.

Building strong communities

Food is the foundation for all other progress. To a starving child, hope can only begin once a reliable source of nutritious food has been established. Food assistance is vital in order to transition individuals, families and communities out of chronic hunger and poverty and into self-sufficiency.

Powerful volunteer experience

Volunteers like you hand-pack and pay for every FMSC meal. We don’t use machines to package FMSC meals because we realize the personal, impactful experience created by packing the meals by hand. Your hands are the last to touch the food before it reaches hungry kids around the world. We couldn’t do this work without you.

About FMSC MobilePack™

Volunteers just like you join hands with neighbors across the U.S. to pack and fund lifesaving FMSC MannaPack meals through FMSC MobilePack events. Churches, businesses, community groups and schools host these food packing events and make a real difference in the fight against world hunger. FMSC provides guidance and logistics. Local donors and volunteers engage in powerful meal packing experiences to improve the lives of malnourished children around the world.

About FMSC MarketPlace

Feed My Starving Children established the international MarketPlace to support self-sufficiency. For a fair wage, the MarketPlace purchases handmade goods from hardworking artisans in communities that receive FMSC meals. The items are then sold in our MarketPlace at FMSC packing sites, MobilePack events and online. MarketPlace purchases build communities and profits go back into FMSC feeding programs.
