Child poverty
The Caring Family Foundation produces nutritious meals for children in need in the UK and Brazil. Working on the ground, we distribute meals to children in hard-to-reach communities, from schools and foodbanks in Liverpool to favelas in São Paulo.
Food is a basic human right, we are passionate about children having the food and nutrition they need for their physical and mental health, their educational attainment and fuelling their individual development, whilst contributing to poverty reduction.
UK Food from the Heart
The Foundation started the One Million and One Meals campaign, providing over 1 million meals to NHS key workers and families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. As a continuation of this successful national campaign, the Caring Family Foundation started the Food from the Heart campaign to feed children affected by food poverty with a food delivery program that would have a long-term and sustainable impact.
In the UK, millions of parents are confronting the dilemma of how to provide the next meal for their children. The Food from the Heart campaign is committed to tackle holiday hunger and rising cost of the living. The Caring Family Foundation has partnered with a large network of schools and food banks nationwide to support children and families facing holiday hunger due to the absence of a free school meal.
In 2024, a total of 584,381 meals were delivered to children and families at risk of poverty and 35,728 children and families supported through our 'Food from the Heart' campaign.
We further expanded our support by providing over £400,000 in grants to partners including The Felix Project, Home-Start, Shining Stars, Success Club and continuing our collaboration with Surrey Square Primary School.
Our work in Brazil
As part of our commitment to addressing hunger in Brazil, the Foundation is actively supporting vulnerable communities, focusing on alleviating food insecurity and empowering those in need.
Our fundings to partners Vila Nova Esperança and Lar Girassol provided 52,202 nutritious meals to children and families in 2024, supporting 200 children daily. We are working to create sustainable solutions while also empowering women with valuable skills and training. By continuing to strengthen food security and community development, we aim to inspire lasting change and break the cycle of food insecurity for future generations.
