The ministry of Children’s Hunger Fund (CHF) would not be where it is today without God’s blessing and the support of people like you! Your support allows CHF to equip local pastors around the world with the training and resources to reach families in need with food and the gospel message of hope.
Whether you joined us at the 2024 President’s Invitational or were unable to make it, we invite you to be a part of what God is doing through Children’s Hunger Fund. You have the opportunity to make a significant impact in the lives of children in need across the US and around the world.
Thank you for your desire to make a difference.
For the children we serve,
Dave Phillips
Founder and President
Children’s Hunger Fund is in year three of a ten-year growth initiative to expand our reach across the United States. We have experienced phenomenal growth in the past three years, serving hundreds of churches with Food Paks every month.
Our greatest financial need is to support the national reach objectives in our operating budget. This includes expenses related to our national Food Pak program and Mercy Network of churches; costs related to our national GIK program, volunteer services, and Poverty Encounter exhibit; and funding to increase the size of our national Food Pak distribution network by 25% over the next twelve months.
Children’s Hunger Fund has trained networks of partner churches in 31 developing countries. Each one focuses on identifying families that live in extreme poverty (income of less than $2.15 per day), seeking to build trust relationships with them through the home delivery of Food Paks.
We need your financial help in sustaining these global programs and to help offset the cost of training, mentoring, and resourcing these church networks. The funding we receive to help us increase our global impact will be used to help fulfill our global commitments to our Mercy Network churches and fund our budgetary needs related to our global programs and projects.
Every year, there are unanticipated economic, political, and natural factors that influence where CHF chooses to invest its time and resources to make the biggest impact.
Your gift can be used for special projects and areas of greatest need within the organization. In each case, our executive team works closely with our accounting department and board of directors to assess areas of need and where our available funds can make the greatest impact.
As a young man, the devastating poverty Dave witnessed at a children’s hospital in Honduras changed him forever. With a united passion to impact the next generation and help local churches build relationships with suffering children in their communities, Dave and his wife, Lynn, founded Children’s Hunger Fund (CHF).
After helping her husband, Dave, establish Children’s Hunger Fund, Lynn took a break from her job as a public teacher to homeschool their four sons. Lynn has always had a heart for children, and her desire to educate the next generation on a biblical response to global poverty led to her role as a Poverty Encounter facilitator. She now serves CHF as a Relationship Development Ambassador.
For over twenty years, Michael has served at Children’s Hunger Fund in a myriad of ways, from overseeing volunteer operations and international logistics and relationship development, to opening the San Antonio and Dallas offices. As Senior Vice President, he is focusing on cultivating relationships with supporters, stewardship, ambassador program, executive leadership, and the growth of the Children’s Hunger Fund Legacy Foundation.
