FAMINE IS LOOMING FOR MILLIONS
There is no reason why famine should exist in 2021. Yet, 41 million people across the globe are facing life-threatening hunger. We need your help to save their lives.
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has been on the front lines of the world’s worst hunger crises, fighting hunger and famine since 1962. Right now we’re taking on our largest scale-up ever in response to COVID-19, providing lifesaving meals to 109 million of the world’s most vulnerable people in more than 80 countries this year.
