Overview

Mission

Deliver The Difference is a humanitarian hunger relief organizations. We believe it is wrong that children go to bed hungry and not knowing where their next meal will come from. We believe it is wrong that seniors have to decided whether to buy groceries or their prescriptions. We believe that together we can end the scourge of hunger in the USA and around the world. We mobilize thousands of volunteers to package meals that are then used Locally, Nationally in Disasters and Around the World.

What it reported doing in 2018

Our third program is our International Hunger Relief program. In 2018 we continued to provide meals to Haiti and began the ground work to begin meal packaging in India. Every year over 1,000,000 meals are shipped to Haiti and distributed , through four NGO's we work with their. Currently we work with Black and White for Jesus, Children Rescue Haiti, Feed My Sheep and Ruska Village. The meals for India will be packaged in India and in February of 2017 we had a very successful trip to Ongole, India where we launched meal packaging and a Childrens Feeding Program.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filed totals do not add up and revenue has declined or grown slowly.
