Providing Care and Love for Children Worldwide.
Setting children up for a brighter and healthier future is a commitment we stand behind through our efforts at CalerieKids® Foundation
UP TO 31%
of children in counties throughout California are suffering from food insecurity.
11 MILLION
children in the United States live in food-insecure households. This translates to 1 in 6 children who may not have consistent access to healthy, nourishing foods.
3.4%
of children under 5 years of age in the United States are affected by stunting. This is a condition of impaired growth and development that results from poor nutrition, recurring infection, and inadequate psychosocial stimulation.
80%
of children in the United States with mental, emotional, or behavioral disorders do not have access to support from a specialized mental health care provider. Many more are likely undiagnosed.
Mission Statement
How We Help
Making A Difference
CalerieKids® Foundation is passionate about helping kids suffering from all forms of malnutrition and resultant health outcomes. Addressing the worldwide issues of childhood malnutrition can begin by simply improving global access to essential micronutrients. Additionally, we believe physical and mental health go hand-in-hand when supporting children, which is why our mission includes targeting both.

This problem doesn’t just exist in developing countries, however. Countless children lack the care they need to support their physical and mental health in the United States.
