BlueTV Group Feeds the Poor

October 16, 2006, Deerfield Beach, FL - BlueTV Group is pleased to announce the selection of Feed The Poor Charity for its innovative, educational television series, TODAY’S FAMILY. The organization will be featured in a segment on “Getting America Involved” as part of the series “Touching Hearts and Changing Lives.”

A strong, self-sufficient American Indian community--that is the vision of Feed The Poor Charity, a group dedicated to helping Native American people improve the quality of their lives by providing opportunities for them to bring about positive changes in their communities.

The FEED THE POOR operates its programming differently from most other charities, in that they work with Program Partners. These are people in the community who volunteer their time to assess the needs of the community, organize an event, recruit volunteers, and execute the local program. These more than 400 Program Partners are essential to the success of the charities.

The FEED THE POOR also insists upon volunteerism in its programs. A program is not worth having unless the community supports it. A community that neglects itself will leave itself void of any outside assistance. For this reason, a program’s success is dependent on the people in the community having a vested interest in the program. The FEED THE POOR is the only American Indian charity that has thousands of Native volunteers with a shared purpose, to build self-sufficiency and effect change.

Many large corporations donate millions of dollars worth of goods to the organization to distribute each year.

The organization provides program services, especially in education, that benefit Native Americans throughout the United States, but their focus is in rural communities on economically depressed reservations in the Northern Plains and in the Southwest.

FEED THE POOR has four program arms:
