Hey guys!
I'm David and I am currently studying Environmental Engineering in Munich, Germany. 
I guess the study path I chose obviously shows that I am concerned with environmental and social issues, that's why it has always been my dream to go abroad and volunteer in Africa or South America. Unfortunately,  I have not been able to do this yet, but I'm still planning on it!
Meanwhile, I tried to find a way to help people in need, even without being physically present for them. My doubt with most charity foundations is that I never really know what my donations are used for, that's why I decided to support AmeriCares ( www.americares.org ) their Meal Pack Program in collaboration with XanGo LLC.  The company partnered with AmeriCares to ensure the delivery of Meal Packs where they are most needed, mainly programs in Cambodia, Malawi, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Mexico and the Philippines. AmeriCares beneficiaries range from institutions like tertiary hospitals to children’s homes to far-reaching outpost clinics, allowing them to deliver aid to children and families around the world. A great point about this project is that you exactly know what your donation is buying! All the money is used to produce Meal Packs and ship them directly to third world countries. 
The Meal Pack contains up to 50 meals which help people to fight against starvation. It provides many essential nutrients in a dry powder formulation for the severely malnourished. Most people who suffer long periods of poverty, and famine cannot properly digest solid food anymore, but they can get their strength back by eating these Meal Packs who are just mixed with some water. The Meal Pack is suitable for both children and adults. For additional information, consider also http://www.americares.org/you-can-help/corporations/corporate-donors/xango-nutritional-meal-packs-partner-in-profile.html 

I set myself a goal that I want to raise enough money for at least 2000 meals and put those donations entirely into this Meal Pack Program. I give my best to have a positive impact on people's lives as far as I can and with this project, I want to share this feeling with others.

I would be so thankful for all those who will support this cause. I believe that together we can truly make a change! Just ask yourself how it would affect your life, if somebody on the other side of the world made a donation that could give you your life back. Make sure you leave your email address, so that I can share the prove of the final shipment confirmation!
