I often discuss the food security issues that we have in the United States on Foodbeast, but it's important to note that several other countries have it worse.

Haiti is a prime example of massive food insecurity. The small Caribbean island is in deep poverty, with the average Haitian living on less than a dollar per day. Hunger is a common feeling amongst adults and children in the island country.

To help satiate their hunger, several Haitians eat "mud cookies," or sun-baked circles of mud and vegetable oil that fill their stomachs to fight off the hunger. Yikes.

Turns out that superfood company Natierra is hoping to make a massive impact on food security in the island nation by providing one million meals to children in Haiti.

Natierra CEO Thierry Ollivier was inspired during a business trip to Haiti last year to help the country's children out. What's more he's gotten Natierra to team up with NGO charity Convoy of Hope to launch the "Feed A Soul" project at the recent Natural Products Expo West in Anaheim.

Here's how it works: for every Natierra Himalania Superfoods bag sold, the company will give one meal to a Haitian child in need of food. The ultimate goal is to donate a million meals by 2018.

So far the campaign has already been successful in funding over 20,000 meals, but there's definitely a lot of them left to give.

If you're interested in helping out, all you have to do is go to a store carrying Natierra's products and purchase a bag. Natierra sells a range of over twenty different superfoods, including cacao nibs, goji Berries, and chocolate-covered chia seeds. They're available in stores like Whole Foods, Sprouts, Vons, Ralphs, and even on Amazon.

The next time you're out stocking up on superfood snacks like chocolate-covered goji berries or hemp seeds, remember that you can help tackle food security in Haiti just by buying a Natierra bag.

I'm definitely down to help this amazing philanthropic effort.
