Fighting Childhood Starvation: The Inspiring Story of ​Fight Against Childhood Starvation (FACS)

In 2018, Arteja Stamps, a compassionate and visionary ​Chicago native who had moved to Arkansas, founded ​Fight Against Childhood Starvation (FACS). FACS is a ​beacon of hope in the fight against food insecurity, ​providing essential support to families grappling with ​the challenges of food scarcity.


At the core of FACS are four innovative projects ​designed to address the various aspects of food ​insecurity. These projects offer immediate assistance ​to those in need and also work towards creating ​sustainable solutions for at-risk families. The team, led ​by Arteja, pours their energy and commitment into ​these initiatives year-round, ensuring that no gap is ​left unfilled and no need is left unmet.


In 2019, Arteja launched the Miss Arkansas FACS ​Scholarship Pageant, a platform for fundraising and ​community engagement. The pageant is more than ​just a showcase of talent and grace; it embodies the ​spirit of Arkansas, generating vital funds, and ​collecting toys to bring joy to children during the ​Christmas season.


FACS, under Arteja's leadership, exemplifies the ​power of community, compassion, and unwavering ​commitment to the noble cause of eradicating ​childhood starvation. It's a testament to what can be ​achieved when one person's vision ignites a collective ​effort to make a difference.
