How Was Kids Against Hunger Started?
The organization was founded in March 1999 by Richard Proudfit, a successful entrepreneur. In 1974 Richard volunteered on a medical mission to Honduras after Hurricane Fifi had ravaged that country.

His life’s work became clear to him – feed these starving children.
