Lauren Bush: FEED Bags a Great Choice for Eco-concious/Socially Responsible Shoppers!
 |
Laura Bush first started her vision for the FEED program in 2006, when her first FEED bag was made. “The FEED 100 reusable bag is made of organic cotton and natural burlap and is produced with a commitment to ensuring fair treatment of workers, livable wages, paid overtime and safe and clean working environments(http://wholefoodsmarket.com).” |

“Each purchase of a FEED 100 reusable shopping bag will ensure 100 full bellies, encourage education and lead to a brighter future for school children.” With each purchase through Whole Foods, “$10 will be donated by FEED Projects’ foundation, FEED Foundation, to the World Food Program’s Rwanda School Feeding operation; with the remainder going to cover the costs of the bag and oversight of the program by the FEED foundation. To further help the initiative, Whole Foods Market is not making a profit by offering the bags to its shoppers(http://wholefoodsmarket.com)” For more information on where you can find these bags, visit the following websites: http://www.feedprojects.org/ or http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/ |

Personally, I think this is a great bag for a great cause! Be sure to check out those websites above. There is a lot of information about the program, what it does and who it is helping. It’s great to know that you are helping out so many people by just simply buying a bag. Along with Whole Foods Market, I recently saw these bags on amazon.com. What an easy way to make a difference!
