Feeding the World's Hungry Children - Part 2

As indicated by the title, this a follow-up to a previous post that described a product called the XanGo Meal Pack - "a dry powder formulation for the severely malnourished, it helps to strengthen those who cannot properly digest solid food due to long periods of poverty, famine and other disasters." If you have not yet read Part 1 or simply want a refresher, CLICK HERE.

The purpose for this post is to describe how you can get involved in helping get more of these Meal Packs out into the world.

But first things first.

XanGo is a Network Marketing company that as of this writing carries four product lines: XanGo Juice (dietary supplement), 3Sixty5 (vitamins & minerals), Glimpse (skin care) and of course the Meal Packs. As an independent distributor with XanGo, one has the option of marketing, promoting and building a business with any one or combination of the four products (or even all of them) - an important tidbit that we will come back to in a minute.

The Meal Packs cost $115US and are available in the US, Canada, Mexico, and Japan with plans of expansion into other international markets.

Now, there are a few ways to get involved. The first way is you can purchase a Meal Pack from your local XanGo distributor and it'll get shipped out in bulk once a pallet is filled. This is great if we all had an extra $115 to spend. However, I'm sure I don't have to point out that the economic trend is such that fewer and fewer people have any sort of extra disposable income. A sobering truth when trying to raise money and awareness for worthy causes.

So what is the answer? Well, XanGo being a Network Marketing company, a solution quite suddenly hit me. And I was surprised that no one had thought of (or at least followed thru with) this idea before.

Why not build an organization with the Meal Pack as the primary focus.

Sounds crazy I know but follow me on this one. There is no doubt that the Meal Pack is step in the right direction towards addressing the world hunger crisis. But another crisis, the global economic meltdown, has kept otherwise willing participants from getting involved. So why not set up a program where both issues are addressed, a program that lets people purchase these Meal Packs and at the same time create extra income for themselves?

That's exactly what I propose we do.

In my next post, I will outline a plan that will explain the steps we need to take to make this work. Until then, marinate on this: An entire Network Marketing organization of prospering distributors who have built their businesses with a product that feeds the hungry - people being rewarded for helping others.

It might just be crazy enough to work.
