How We Fight Hunger
Food
With proper nutrition early in life, children can grow, develop and thrive to their full potential.
Education
Children around the world are given the educational materials needed for success in the classroom with the help of corporate partners and educators.
Disaster Response
When we work with community partners, we support our neighbors and work together towards recovery.
Poverty
Poverty leads to hunger — but if we work together, we can create a world where no child goes to bed hungry.
Health & Water
Through our programs, we promote healthy immune systems and enable children to develop through adolescence and into adulthood.
Livelihoods
Through our Village Savings and Loan programs, we hope families will be self-reliant, financially stable and able to support and strengthen their communities.
