“As a Medical professional I am at the twilight of my career. Having had the luxury of a supportive family with needs met and educational encouragement I learned early on that this is an essential part of an individual’s meaningful existence on this planet. As such it is evident that this is not the case everywhere. Having been provided abundantly then it becomes a responsibility to share with those not so fortunate.When Hyder and Fatima approached me with Feeding Villages we as a family had already been involved in children’s food programs and those for human trafficking. When a young family such as theirs takes on an endeavor of this magnitude and ask for support to me it was not a choice as much as a means to share the abundance with which we have been endowed. Young people such as this conscious couple need the support of like minded individuals.As donors we never feel like we give enough. With Hyder and Fatima with their support staff in Africa, I feel that whatever we give will be used efficiently and appropriately towards their heartfelt project. Water and basic food as well as education is an integral part of a child’s and family’s human right.USA is a country with resources beyond any other place on earth. It attracts those of us looking to build a fulfilling life for our families and subsequent generations. By and large the immigrant experience is a successful one. In order for this planet to survive and thrive it then becomes our duty to afford this opportunity to our brothers and sisters outside our Boundries. That responsibility is part and parcel of having had the privilege to call United States our adopted home.It is with honor and Gratitude that I am able to be part of Feeding Villages due to Hyder and Fatima’s efforts. No doubt their daughters will be part of this legacy.”

Global poverty is an issue that should be important to all of us regardless of where we are. We can all do our part to help improve the situations in countries where malnutrition is a way of life and food insecurity is normal. Thank you Feeding Village’s Team for all you are doing!
