FEEDING PROGRAM IN ACTION

I. BACKGROUND OF THE PROBLEM

This program aims to reduce child hunger, improve child nutrition,
enhance school performance and provide socialization opportunities for
children are valued affectively by all direct and indirect participants.
Because of poverty and lack of money some families doesn’t afford to
feed their children in a regular basis. The community that would be the
beneficiary of this program would be Barangay Minante 2, Cauayan City,
Isabela
II. POSSIBLE PARTNERS
Feed the Children has battled hunger in the Philippines since 1984. Its
programs have positively influenced more than 283,000 people in 38
communities. Through the use of Child-Focused Community
Development (CFCD), the organization helps children overcome both
short-term and long-term hunger issues.
The CFCD approach works with vulnerable and at-risk children as well as
their caregivers and communities. Through this program, Feed the
Children has provided caregivers with necessary training and resource
provisions required to feed families, build clean communities and
increase access to education. As a result, it was able to achieve the goal
of cultivating appropriate conditions required for thriving, specifically in
terms of food and nutrition security.
FEED aids Filipinos in many areas, such as improving childhood nutrition
and development or training on water and sanitation. It also utilizes the
idea of child-managed savings groups to teach financial management to
children and allow them to develop savings for food and family use.

III. POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS

On the supply side, measures to mitigate hunger include increasing food
production capacity and productivity, enhancing efficiency of logistics
and food delivery, public infrastructure, implementation of the Food-for-
School Program and other feeding programs.
