Treasure Coast Food Bank
To actualize its mission, Treasure Coast Food Bank utilizes two measurable strategies to alleviate hunger among the more than 100,000 individuals found to be food insecure in our community. First strategy: we share millions of nutritious meals each year with food-insecure individuals through food distribution programming. Meals, which have been procured, stored, and inventoried by TCFB, are shared seven days a week through TCFB-coordinated mobile pantry distributions, our child nutrition programs during the school year and over the summer, with more than 250 collaborative partner organizations (human service agencies, churches) that serve low-income clients who are in need of immediate relief from hunger, and other programs. TCFB has formed these collaborations in order to create a highly-efficient emergency food distribution network that extends into the hundreds of diverse neighborhoods that constitute Florida’s Treasure Coast and Okeechobee County. Second strategy: TCFB manages direct-service programs that ultimately help people transcend the need for government and charity support and thus ultimately, achieve long-term self-sufficiency. These programs are known as our “Strengthen Individuals & Families Programming.â€

THEN FEED JUST ONE INC
Then Feed Just One is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation with a mobile food packaging program that packages life saving nutritious meals for starving children and their families in Honduras, Central America. Our name is taken from a quote of Mother Teresa, who once said, “If you cannot feed a hundred people, then feed just one.†Our goal is simple: to help alleviate hunger and malnutrition in the second poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The food we package is used as a base from which the hungry and malnourished can help escape the dire consequences of their daily lives. In cooperation with various organizations in Honduras this food is distributed to the most needy in orphanages, children’s homes, and throughout the general population. We accomplish this task each time a school, church, club, or community desires to have a food packing event.

NEW HOPE UGANDA MINISTRIES INC
“A Father to the fatherless… is God in His holy habitation. He sets the lonely in families.” Psalm 68:5-6a Uganda has a monumental orphan crisis. While many see the orphans as the problem, New Hope Uganda recognizes the deeply-rooted cultural sickness, and the orphan situation is a severe symptom. What is this sickness? Simply put, it is a sin-ravaged culture where the Biblical design for family has been essentially destroyed. New Hope understands that societal transformation through the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the only solution to the problem of fatherlessness in Uganda and around the world. Through our various initiatives, New Hope Uganda reaches orphaned, vulnerable, abandoned and special needs children and their communities with the Gospel of Jesus and the Fatherhood of God.
