Children's Hunger Fund and Alpine Swiss deliver 2.25 million meals to children in need

LOS ANGELES - March 30, 2018 - PRLog -- Children's Hunger Fund (CHF) and Alpine Swiss, the Southern California retailer of clothing, footwear, and accessories, announce that they have delivered 2.25 million meals to children around the world over the course of three years.

The retailer has partnered with the international nonprofit since 2011, initially donating 250 meals per day in 2014 and increasing that number to 2,500 meals per day in 2016.

"The support from Alpine Swiss is incredibly valuable to the mission of Children's Hunger Fund," said Tim Hackett, Senior Director of Donor Relationships at Children's Hunger Fund. "This ongoing partnership allows us to care for families in a long-term way. It's been a joy to work alongside a company that is so devoted to making an impact on the community around them."

In addition to financial donations, Alpine Swiss has given various products to the organization, and has volunteered in the Los Angeles distribution center as a staff.

Alpine Swiss commented, "We are grateful and blessed to have been able to touch so many children & their family's lives.  We want to thank Children's Hunger Fund for the good work that they do and we would like to thank our customers because this would not be possible without their support."

With the help of partnerships like Alpine Swiss, Children's Hunger Fund seeks to deliver hope to suffering children around the world. Meals are delivered in Food Paks, boxes of up to 20 pounds of nutritious food, which are packed by volunteers in CHF's four domestic distribution centers.

Food Paks and other forms of food and aid are delivered directly to the homes of domestic and international families by CHF partner churches that make up Mercy Networks. This home-delivery method allows relationships to develop, and long-term aid to be shared.

Children's Hunger Fund has Mercy Networks throughout the US, as well as in 24 other countries, where the same method of delivering food and aid is taking place. Currently, Children's Hunger Fund distribution centers are located in Los Angeles, Chicago, San Antonio, and Dallas.

Children's Hunger Fund has served the needs of children through gospel-centered mercy ministry for more than twenty-five years. Since 1991, 97% of all donations have directly supported programs that serve suffering children and families. The charity has distribution centers in Chicago, San Antonio, Dallas, and at its headquarters in Los Angeles. At each center, bulk food is packed by volunteers into "Food Paks" (a box of up to 20 pounds of nutritious food). Food Paks are distributed to millions of children and families in need throughout the US and worldwide through a unique process, utilizing a Mercy Network of pastors and local churches who deliver the Food Paks into the homes of families in each region that is served.
