Toys that help feed children in need.
As parents, it is hard to imagine any child starting the school day hungry. That is why we wanted LingoDodo to do more than help families preserve language. With every LingoDodo toy purchased, we help provide nutrition to a child in need.

children die each year from hunger-related causes
We believe that by giving children the nutrition they need to thrive and reach their potential, we will be making a positive impact on the world for generations to come.
Giving Meals Helps Children
Fight Disease
develop cognitively
receive an education
Do better in school
break the cycle of poverty
reach their full potential
For every toy purchased, 10 meals are provided to children in need around the world through our non-profit partners.
The school meals we provide through our non-profit partners play a critical role in these communities because they are sometimes the only meal a child will eat on a given day.
Providing nutritious meals at school gives children the energy to learn, break the cycle of poverty, and build a brighter future.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Invisible Girl Project
The Invisible Girl Project (IGP) is a non-profit organization focused on ending female gendercide in India by addressing the systemic abandonment, trafficking, and killing of baby girls. Operating through a model of rescue, intervention, care, and empowerment, the organization partners with local grassroots groups to save at-risk girls, provide them with safe housing and education, and pursue legal justice against perpetrators. Beyond immediate rescue, IGP works to shift cultural mindsets by supporting mothers with micro-loans and community training, aiming to transform the perception of daughters from financial burdens into valued members of society.
World Food Program USA
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide, reaching more than 76 million people in 81 countries with food assistance. WFP provides meals to 18.3 million children each year. We support WFP USA's school meal program because it can be life-changing to children, not only helping to improve their nutrition but improving their ability to learn.
There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children.
