THE NEED: A WORLD FREE FROM HUNGER

Malnutrition is the single greatest threat to child survival. Every year, 3.1 million children die of malnutrition – a staggering 45% of all child deaths globally. That’s unacceptable.

 

THE IDEA: BE THE GENERATION THAT ENDS HUNGER

Did you know that hunger is completely preventable? The world has the knowledge, the ability, and the resources to help. All we need are people like you to help us keep up the fight against the root causes of hunger.

With your help, we can be the generation that ends hunger in our lifetime.
