Many families struggle with food insecurity, making daily nourishment a challenge. RMI’s Food for Health program provides essential food assistance to children and families.
Hunger is a daily reality for many. Through RMI’s Food for Health program, we provide essential food assistance to ensure children and families receive the nourishment they need.
Malnutrition affects a child’s ability to grow, learn, and thrive. By providing food through schools and churches, we help children build a healthier future.
Our program delivers food to families struggling with hunger, ensuring they have the strength to work, learn, and provide for their loved ones.
A case of food contains 216 meals which will provide a family of 6 a nutritional meal every day for a month! Imagine the difference it makes when your food budget is less than one dollar a day and you receive a case of this food? What a great investment into the lives of the kids and families that have such great needs.
A single farm kit provides a Haitian farmer with the essentials to cultivate their land effectively. Each kit includes:
You can provide seeds for a Haitian farmer, or a Haitian family, empowering them to grow food, creating long-term sustainability instead of short-term relief. This kind of relief helps break the cycle of hunger by turning a one-time gift into a season’s worth of harvests. Supporting local farming also strengthens the rural economy and fosters dignity and self-reliance for the family.
When you purchase these seeds, we will get them into the hands of a farmer or family who need them most.
Combating Malnutrition Through Food Distribution
RMI addresses food insecurity by distributing essential food supplies to children and families, ensuring they receive the necessary nutrition for healthy development and improved quality of life.
Community Engagement in Food Programs
By involving local communities in food distribution efforts, RMI fosters a sense of ownership and collaboration, enhancing the effectiveness and sustainability of nutritional programs.
“You should see the children who have been eating this food! …the thickness and color of their hair, the complexion of their skin and the smiles on their faces. These kids are totally different. In times past the children were so tired by 10 a.m., they just couldn’t focus on learning. Now they are full of energy and able to learn the whole morning!”
All Madame Timo had left after the hurricane was the splintered wood of her home, a dish or two and a small chair. She gathered her meager belongings and fashioned a lean-to for her to live in. Life had been hard before the hurricane but with her home, gardens and animals gone, she found it almost unbearable. She begged God for some relief, some kind of help. God answered her prayers when her pastor stopped by with some visitors from her church’s Sister Church in the US. They brought her a box of food, listened to her story and encouraged her by praying with her. It really touched her heart that these visitors would come to her very humble home, such as it was, pray with her and give her food. She was thankful that God heard her prayers. The food would last until the next harvest when she would be able to slowly get back on her feet.
