Meds & Food for Kids (or MFK) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to treating and preventing child malnutrition in Haiti by producing fortified peanut-based foods. Meds & Food for Kids uses a peanut-based feeding approach called Ready-to-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF), known as Medika Mamba (Haitian Creole for "Peanut Butter Medicine"). ==History== MFK was founded in 2004 by Patricia B. Wolff, MD, formerly a pediatrician in private practice in St. Louis, Missouri. Wolff first visited Haiti in 1988 with a mission group called the Haiti Project and volunteered at Mother Teresa’s homes for dying children and adults 〔Levitt, Aimee (June 30, 2010). "Dr. Peanut: A St. Louis pediatrician battles child malnutrition in Haiti with peanut butter".''Riverfront Times''.〕 Subsequently, Wolff volunteered in Haiti for fifteen years as a volunteer pediatrician at a village clinic 〔"Talk of the Town: Dr. Pat Wolff". ''Rick Wallace.'' 106.5 The Arch. June 28, 2012. Radio.〕 In March 2011, Wolff left her private practice as a pediatrician to dedicate her time to MFK.〔
