Feed The Little Children Inc.
Feed The Little Children Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Broome, Western Australia. It specializes in providing emergency respite food services to children at high risk from household food insecurity.
History and Mission
The organization was initially conceptualized in 2007 after comprehensive consultations with Aboriginal community members, government, and non-government organizations. These discussions laid the groundwork for a mission focused on addressing food insecurity among vulnerable children. Feed The Little Children Inc. was formally established as a registered charity in 2011, with its first meal delivery taking place in January 2012, when 20 meals were distributed.
Activities
The organization works tirelessly to deliver hot, nutritious meals to children whose families struggle with maintaining household food security due to various economic and social factors. During the 2023-24 period, it successfully provided 29,891 hot meals, demonstrating its commitment to supporting families in need[2]. The charity's activities are research and outcomes-based, ensuring that their efforts are effectively addressing food insecurity and supported by the community[4].
Funding and Expansion
Feed The Little Children Inc. has received significant funding support over the years. Notable grants include a $240,000 grant from Lotterywest in 2014, which helped increase their meal deliveries substantially. Additional funding in 2016 from Josie Farrer ALP WA and another major grant from Lotterywest for marketing in 2018 have further propelled their initiatives[3]. The organization is planning to expand its services to Kununurra, aided by a structured research project funded by Lotterywest[3].
Impact
The organization's efforts have been praised for bridging the gap between advantaged and disadvantaged families within the community. By providing essential sustenance, Feed The Little Children Inc. empowers families to manage their financial constraints more effectively. It also offers children's cooking classes, equipping young individuals with the skills to prepare their own meals, fostering independence and self-sufficiency[1].
Community Role
Feed The Little Children Inc. plays a vital role in raising awareness about child poverty and related social issues in Broome. It has been instrumental in fostering stronger relationships between community members and local families, promoting a culture of support and mutual understanding[1].

Its no surprise that the hunger epidemic is one of the biggest challenges the global community is facing but it can be unsettling to learn its prevalent in our own backyard. Many Australian children dont know where their next meal is coming from and when they do eat arent getting the adequate nutrition they need to lead healthy lifestyles. Thats where we come in. YoureMaking a Real Difference Your generosity doesnt sit in a bank account every dollar goes to our lifechanging work.
