Feed the Hungry Continues Relief Efforts to Mozambique

On Saturday, September 23, Feed the Hungry's ship, the Evangeline will depart Norfolk, Virginia for Mozambique, East Africa, carrying five million pounds of food and supplies.
The ship will arrive in Mozambique at the end of October to provide much needed relief to the flood-ravaged nation.

"This relief comes to Mozambique after most other efforts have ended and the conditions existing in Mozambique are no longer being reported in the nightly news," says Stephen Sumrall, president of LeSEA Global Feed the
Hungry(R) (FTH).

To amass this shipment of supplies, FTH relied on long-time partners, like the Kellogg Company. The company contributed over 18 semi-tractor loads of product to the Mozambique relief effort, valued at $1 million retail.

"Because we produce nutritious, convenient foods, Kellogg is in a unique position to provide essential support to people in disaster situations, like the citizens of Mozambique," said Joseph Stewart, senior vice president of
corporate affairs for Kellogg Company. "By providing these resources, we are investing in greater stability around the world. Feed the Hungry has the global system in place to help us take our products to the people who really
need the food."

The FTH partnership with Kellogg has resulted in the distribution of millions of dollars worth of food to hungry people. As a humanitarian aid
organization, LeSEA Global Feed the Hungry(R) is singularly dedicated to executing all phases of each project it undertakes -- from acquisition, to
transportation, to distribution.

This kind of efficiency, integrity and accountability gives FTH favor with
corporations that desire to have confidence and trust that their sizable donations will safely reach their intended destinations.
