A New World Community Service Project
It’s all about POWER FLOUR!
Imagine- in the last 90 days over 1 million children under the
age of five died from malnutrition and starvation! The problem with
feeding the world’s hungry children is that their digestive systems
are so malnourished and immature that they can not eat the commonly
cooked cereals which contain mostly complex carbohydrates.
There is a solution. It’s called POWER FLOUR! Power Flour is
barley malt flour which is added to porridges commonly used in areas
suffering widespread hunger. It contains digestive enzymes that
predigest the food. Just ¼ teaspoon of Power Flour in a bowl of
porridge is all that is needed! This simple additive makes common
starchy food easier to ingest and provides basic nutrients that are
easily absorbed by the intestinal tract. A double blind study of
Power Flour in Panama documented that the weight gain was doubled
every five months for children receiving oatmeal and Power Flour
verses those without Power Flour.
District 6220 has received a Matching Grant to start a project
to ultimately care for the 15 to 20,000 children suffering from
malnutrition annually in Panama. The first shipment has already
arrived in Panama to be used by three NGOs there – Nutre Hogar,
ProNinez, and the Darien Children’s Fund. Plans are under way to
expand into Mexico, the rest of Central America and South America.
We are open to opening projects anywhere in the world. In addition
we are partnering with large nonprofits in the US.
