Meals 4 Others essentially eliminates marketing costs to acquire new customers (typically 9-18%) by partnering with Food Banks/Pantries and Corporations to share their exceptional results from purchasing items through Meals 4 Others. Corporations share with other corporations in their community the incredible feedback they are receiving from gift recipients and the impact to their business that they have experienced partnering with Meals 4 Others.

Food Banks/Pantries integrate Meals 4 Others into their marketing outreach to people like you - Donors/Volunteers/Friends - to encourage all to shop at Meals 4 Others because each purchase will benefit your selected Food Bank/Pantry with a donation amount equal to 15% of the value of you product purchases. The cost is the same as in your local store, but the impact on hunger in your community is huge!

Every $1 donation provides 4+ meals at your Food Bank/Pantry. This is the Meals 4 Others Impact Metric for every purchase decision made by you!  This is a very conservative estimate given that great organizations like Feeding America Food presents an impact of $1 donation will provide 8 meals.  

We reviewed conversion rates reported by Food Banks/Pantries across the U.S. to settle on the PS It Matters Impact Metric of $1 donation resulting in 4+ meals being provided.  Local ratios are affected by regional economics, food store support, and the cost of food acquired. For example, Second Harvest reports a $1:6 ratio while Boston Food Bank lists $1:2.5.  Other metrics used across the country include $1= $8-$10 of food provided and still others share the amount of food tons distributed each year.  Regardless of the metrics used, it is clear that a $1 donation has a very real impact towards eliminating hunger in our communities.

Whatever the ratio, purchases made through Meals 4 Others make a real difference for your neighbors in need. Reduced funding and increased demand for services has dramatically impacted the Food Banks and Food Pantries that are the safety net in our communities.  With Meals 4 Others every purchase cost the same as in your local store and most importantly 15% of the value of every purchase you make goes to the Food Bank/Pantry or Non-Profit of your choice.
