Since its beginnings in 2011, PB+J Foods, Inc (Peanut Butter and Jesus) has been able to reach thousands of children in the Nkhoma valley of northern Malawi assisting them out of malnutrition and starvation with a fortified peanut butter mixture. Along with delivering this much needed food product, PB+J shares the Good News of Jesus Christ to those who have not heard His gospel of love.
In addition to providing funds for expanded plant capacity, the Optivest Foundation recently provided funds toward the completion of a nine unit guesthouse located next to the local village hospital where the PB+J manufacturing plant is located. The new Hope’s Inn provides housing for visiting medical personnel, students and guests as well as a stream of income to subsidize the cost of the freely distributed food product.
