No child should ever go hungry – especially during the holidays.
The holidays are a time when families gather around the table to create memories, tell stories, laugh and enjoy a meal together; but, sadly, 1 in 6 children don’t know where their next meal will come from.
Help us defeat childhood hunger and feed families across the country and in Canada. Origami Owl® is proud to give $1 from each exclusive Silver “Live with Intention” Bar Necklace 16-18” purchased in the month of December to Feed the Children and Canadian Feed the Children. These organizations are dedicated to creating a world where no child goes to bed hungry.
