Our work & impact

The Osorio family faced many struggles—living in a dangerous neighborhood, with a father working construction but still finding it hard to make ends meet. The children went without, and their parents often had to choose between food and other necessities.

Thanks to Kids’ Meals, their children received daily meals, which freed up money the family could use for other priorities. The parents used the savings to purchase tools for the father, who then started his own construction business. With his new business, he secured better job opportunities, leading to greater stability and improved prospects for the entire family.

Today, the Osorio family is thriving. They are in a safer living situation, the father is growing his business, and their children continue to receive meals, all thanks to the support they received from Kids’ Meals.

Jennifer and Oscar (A mom and dad) both work full-time jobs and were enjoying the freedom that comes with having a teenager. When their six nieces and nephews, ages 1 to 11 years old, were facing difficult circumstances and needed a safe home, they didn’t hesitate to welcome them in. Having six more mouths to feed, clothe, and care for put a significant and unexpected financial burden on their budget, but they would never say no to family.

Kids’ Meals has been honored to partner alongside them to support their family. Their compassion, love, sacrificial living and “do whatever it takes for the children” attitude make us hold them in high esteem.
