HUNGER CRISIS

Hunger affects 828 million people, impacting children and women worst and first.

Child Hunger

Hunger deprives our kids of more than just food. It has higher risks of health conditions. A child’s chance for a bright tomorrow starts with getting enough food to eat today.

LEARN FACTS

Senior Hunger

After a lifetime of hard work, 63% of the households in Uganda with older adults (40+) find themselves facing an impossible choice — to buy groceries or medical care.

LEARN FACTS

Rural Hunger

Hunger runs deep in the communities working hardest to feed us. Many rural and farm communities — the very places where crops are grown to feed the nation — face hunger.

ENDING WORLD HUNGER REQUIRES A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH

A world without hunger will never be achieved alone. We collaborate with communities, foundations, companies, governments, and humanitarian partners to achieve zero hunger.

Strategy

The year 2020 was significant, coming with external and internal changes as the world grappled to contain the COVID-19.

Work on women gender and empowerment

Gender equality through women empowerment is central in the programming of all our programs. We’re conscious of the fact that despite the enormous contribution of rural women to the agricultural sector and their contribution to food production and security, they have not been given due recognition in economic development.

STORIES AND IMPACT

We work where the need is greatest. Last year, we made an impact towards 12 million children and their families across 50+ districts.
