Big Goal
___________
● Our teams big goal is to feed our
future world leaders who don’t
have a reliable food source.

and about 795 million people in
the world struggle to put food on
the table.
● Poor nutrition cause about 45% of
deaths in children under 5;about
3.1 million children per year.

3. ____________
Team Project
____________
Our main focus is to identify a target market in
small communities or suburbs of major cities or
towns as a building block to branch out to larger
corporations in the more populated cities. For
example along the U.S Mexican border many
people face poverty due to the lack of income
provided to Mexican-Americans. More than 65%
of Mexican-Americans do not receive a
highschool diploma due to large drop out rate,
this being another cause of poverty. The poverty
will then cause hunger for themselves and their
families. Those are the type of communities we
are targeting leading us to our action plan.
