Abstract
Recipe box delivery service Mindful Chef has donated 500,000 meals to impoverished children worldwide, having partnered with the charity One Feeds Two last year.

Setting itself an ambitious target, Mindful Chef is on a mission to donate one million meals by the end of 2018. Having reached half way, the company said it “is on track to do so.”

 

Founded by JP Campbell, Mark Christophers and Owen Burton in 2013, One Feeds Two works with feeding programmes in the developing world to provide child living in poverty a nutritious school meal.

 

Its principle: “by providing a nutritious school meal, children in some of the world’s poorest countries won’t go hungry, will have one more reason to attend school and as a result have a greater chance in improving their prospects in life.”

 

Mindful Chef co-founder, Myles Hopper, commented: “We are extremely proud of all our customers and staff who have helped us donate over 500,000 school meals to children living in poverty.

 

“Mindful Chef was created to be a socially conscious business and we will continue to push boundaries of what is right, and encourage others to follow suit.

 

“In very real terms this initiative encourages children to go to school and enables them to pull themselves out of poverty."

 

Campbell added: “One Feeds Two is delighted to be working with Mindful Chef and there is real symmetry in our values.

 

“The impact of the school meals is transformative for the children receiving them and will change lives.


“We are excited by the scale of Mindful Chef’s ambition and are incredibly excited about what our partnership can achieve.”
