I wanted to introduce all of you to one of my favorite things. My FEED Bag. It is my diaper/purse/carryall bag and if I could have it surgically connected to my body, I would seriously consider it. It’s big, but not bulky, has side pockets that perfectly fit sippy cups and bottles, has an inside pocket that perfectly fits my clutch that contains all my non-baby-related items, and it’s reversable (a white side and burlap side) and machine washable. Oh, and they are made with 100% organic cotton in certified fair-trade facilities. Can we say *PERFECT*?
Now on to the even better part. The proceeds from each bag provide 1 years worth of meals to hungry children in developing countries. The bags are made as part of a program run by the World Food Programme which is the UN’s department dedicated to fighting hunger. They have several different bags, some that feed 1 child for a year, others that feed 2. They also have smaller, more affordable bags that provide 3 meals and 3 books for a school, backpacks that provide a duplicate backpack for health workers in developing countries, bags that donate specifically to Haiti and even teddy bears that provide baby food for younger children. So go CHECK OUT THE BAGS!
So far, the FEED bags have helped to provided food for 102 million people in 74 countries. The work being done is amazing and the products are incredible. What’s not to love?
Go get yourself one! Or go in with a friends to give one as a diaper bag for the next baby shower you’re invited to!!!
(I’m sporting the FEED2 bag…I couldn’t live without the cross-body strap that let’s me be hands-free!)
