The mission of Kids Against Hunger, a humanitarian food-aid organization, is to significantly reduce the number of hungry children
in the USA and to feed starving children throughout the world. These meals have been formulated by food scientists
to provide a rich source of easily digestible protein, carbohydrates, and vitamins needed by a malnourished child's body and mind.
DBM is now a distribution partner. Our proven track record of successfully getting food, distributing it properly, and
being able to handle the responsibilities of a feeding program, qualified us for this wonderful program. We are now able to
assemble, package and ship this nutritional food product directly from DBM San Antonio to wherever the need is! Visit Kids Against Hunger website

The meal ingredients are formulated by food scientists to provide a rich source of easily digestible protein,
carbohydrates, and vitamins needed by an undernourished child’s body and mind. The food is also acceptable to the
broad diversity of ethnic tastes and religious differences around the world. The food offers all 9 of the essential
amino acids required for complete nutrition, something that can’t be said about other typical food relief sources such
as rice or beans alone. It is also very simple to prepare, requiring only 6 cups of boiling water to make a complete meal.
Our food consists of:
• high-quality white rice
• fortified, crushed soy - 52% protein
• blend of 6 dehydrated vegetables
• 21 vitamins & minerals
The specific formula took nearly three years to develop. The rice was chosen because it is so widely recognized worldwide.
Kids Against Hunger uses premium long-grain white rice. They chose white rice specifically because of its shelf life.
The soy used is fortified with ten vitamins in addition to the high protein content of the soy. The vegetables provide both
color and flavor to the food. The vitamin formula is a proprietary formula and is the “secret sauce” that goes into the food.
Kids Against Hunger meals provides 21 vitamins and minerals and each bag contains six servings of the dehydrated food which when
boiled will serve six children and provide all the vitamins and minerals they need for a day. It provides not just a meal - but
better health to starving children. Additionally, the bags are specifically made to be three-ply for strength and they are made
of a moisture-proof and odor-proof material to prevent spoilage and insect or rodent problems. This food has a shelf life of at
least three years.
