DANONE AND CAISSE D'ALLOCATIONS FAMILIALES LAUNCH FOOD VOUCHER SCHEME FOR POOREST FAMILIES IN THREE TRIAL AREAS LOW-income families are to be offered vouchers for discount baby food


under a new initiative being tested out in three parts of France. The project is being supported by food manufacturer Danone, the _Chèque-Déjeuner_ lunch voucher scheme and the _Caisse


d'Allocations Familiales_ in Nancy, Nantes and the 13th _arrondissement_ of Paris. Couples who earn less than €1,600 a month and receive RSA income support (_revenu de solidarité


active_) will receive a book of vouchers offering reductions of 30% to 50% from September. If successful, the scheme will be then extended nationwide. Danone said any profit from the


increased baby food sales would be reinvested and "not a centime will go to shareholders". Chèque-Déjeuner, which is responsible for printing and sending the vouchers, said it


would not make any money on the scheme. Every year an estimated 80,000 babies are born to families who live below the poverty line. Vojtech Vlk - Fotolia.com
