Every Dollar Feeds Kids was founded in 1999 by the First Congregational Church of San Rafael, California, to provide food and assistance to impoverished children in the vicinity of Cuernavaca, Mexico. The San Rafael program is now one of several Partner EDFK churches.
EDFK works cooperatively with VAMOS!, an independent service organization founded in 1986 by Bill and Patty Coleman and Ike Patch. VAMOS! currently supports 82 separate educational, health and nutrition projects in Mexico. EDFK provides the food for many of the feeding programs within the VAMOS! network. To read more about VAMOS!, go to http://www.vamos.org.mx. In the five years since its founding, the several EDFK partners have provided more than 500,000 meals to needy children at VAMOS! projects. We have now raised more than $ 250,000 to support the feeding programs. Through an EDFK friend, a donation of $ 100,000 was made in 2004 to VAMOS! to enable the purchase of Casa Tatic, the multi-purpose building in downtown Cuernavaca serving street children and indigent seniors in the area. Every Dollar Feeds Kids has now been granted 501(c)(3) tax exemption status by the IRS. All donations to the program are now channeled directly through EDFK partners and are fully tax deductible.
