Read the 2023 winter EDFK newsletter
In 1999, we founded Every Dollar Feeds KidsTM (EDFK) to provide meals to impoverished children in Cuernavaca, Mexico. In the last 20 years, EDFK has sent over $270,000 to Mexico and recruited several partner churches. In fact, the response to EDFK has been so great that we recently incorporated EDFK as a separate 501(c)(3) non-profit to facilitate fund-raising with foundations and corporate matching programs. Over the last 25 years, millions of meals have been provided.
Our partner in Mexico is Vamos! a volunteer organization that has grown to manage 81 different programs to feed, educate and empower the poorest of the poor.
Both EDFK and Vamos! operate on the principle embodied in our name: All fund-raising and administrative expenses are paid from the supporting Churches’ outreach budgets, so that 100% of every dollar contributed goes to food.
You can contribute by writing your check to “EDFK” and mailing it to

Several groups from our congregation have traveled to Cuernavaca to meet the people of VAMOS! and see first-hand the impact of EDFK on the lives of the kids.
