Nearly one out of three of us lives with food insecurity and malnutrition. But we see a future in which no one does. For every dollar amount you donate helps Food Rights Alliance enhance its efforts towards the right to food.
Donate TodayThe rate of hunger among seniors aged 40 and older has increased by 45% since 2001. At the current rate, the number of food-insecure seniors may grow to more than 8 million by 2050. And hunger pains can be increasingly painful as we age.
63% of senior households are forced to choose between food and medical care.
Households that include an adult of the age 40 or older are at an increased risk of having someone with a chronic health condition, including diabetes (41%) and high blood pressure (70%) — conditions that can be mitigated by healthy food options.
Food Rights Alliance is committed to helping our senior population. We advocate for over 7 million Ugandans 50 or older, plus nearly 6 million more adults between the ages of 40 and 49. We design programs that take into account the health considerations, transportation needs, physical limitations and dietary restrictions of older Ugandans. But we can’t do this important work without you.
