Have you heard of this?

Finally some encouraging news!

no, hadn't heard about this, but that's really awesome news. (except if you have nut allergies).

So I didn't see in a glance, how are they getting this food to the kids? Donations or something? It would be really sad if they have the very thing that can help and can't get it to the people that need it.

Distribution will always be the problem in countries without functional civil institutions.
