“Help us go the last mile to solve the world’s hunger problems” — Kate Hudson, WFP Goodwill Ambassador
Kate is raising money to help the world’s hungriest people. Her initial goal was to raise $1 for every mile between herself and Yemen, and with your support, Kate has raised $20,243! Every dollar buys two meals, which means we’ve delivered nearly 40,500 meals around the world. Kate is committed to solving global hunger. Are you with us?
