The Vitamin Project History

The Vitamin Project began as a very informal ministry as part of a medical team conducting medical clinics in Lebanon  twice a year for Syrian refugees. One of the places where we held clinics was at a school for Syrian refugee children. The kids got lunch at the school which usually consisted of two pieces of bread with some Nutella spread in between. For some of these kids it may have been the best meal they received all day. Recognizing the need here, we started taking enough children’s vitamins for every kid at the school (around 150) to have a daily vitamin (five days a week) until we returned in six months. We also started taking prenatal vitamins to handout to expectant mothers in our clinics. What started out as this very informal ministry, God has richly blessed and grown. We now distribute vitamins, Pedialyte and infant formula to partners around the world.
