Kellanova and GFN Partner to Ensure Better Days for Children
Bylined by: Jason Woods, managing editor, The Global FoodBanking Network
It's critical for children to get the nutrition they need during their first 1,000 days — if a child lacks adequate nutrition during this crucial window of development, the adverse consequences may last a lifetime.
The Global FoodBanking Network (GFN) is partnering with Kellanova (maker of Pringles®, Cheez-It®, Pop-Tarts® and more) to ensure children around the world have the foods they need to grow and thrive.
Within our Network, 39 food banks in 33 countries implement at least one child hunger program. GFN supports these programs by offering information, resources, capacity-building grants, and links to experts, best practices, and partner organizations like Kellanova.
Child hunger programs look different depending on the needs of the community. For example, school meal programs provide breakfast and/or lunch to children during the school day. Summer or holiday food programs provide meals to children during the summer or holidays when they cannot rely on school meals. And nutrition education programs provide opportunities for children to learn more about different types of food, healthy eating habits, and social and cultural aspects of food and eating.

FFSA's Mother & Child Nutrition Program launched in May 2023 in Eastern Cape and Western Cape and has since expanded the program nationally.

The program delivers 250-500 food parcels monthly.
