The foundation’s head office is located at Twyford. With their focus mainly on helping children, the foundation concentrates on providing and sustaining education in impoverished areas, giving support to children affected by HIV/Aids, providing vocational training for older children, offering emergency help in situations like the 2004 tsunami in India, and providing support for homeless and abandoned children.
Feed the Children staff members operate with trusted partners to ensure that all donations go directly to the people in need. The foundation has collaborated with the United Nations World Food Programme in order to feed thousands of children in Africa. Moreover, Feed the Children Foundation operates worldwide to help build up sustainable communities while providing the everyday essentials of children who are in dire need.
The foundation runs projects in several deprived areas worldwide such as the Sapling Project in Africa, which teaches African children regarding the importance of trees while also letting them experience it by giving them trees to care for. Another of the foundation’s programs is the Pants and Pads Appeal, which provides young Kenyan and Zimbabwean girls certain necessities like sanitary napkins and underwear so that they would not miss classes whenever they have their period.
