NOURISH FUTURES
As the world’s largest provider of school meals, WFP supports children and their families around the world with school meals, snacks and take-home rations. However, WFP is facing its largest funding shortfall in its 60+ year history and urgently needs support to continue programs like school meals.

Why the U.S. Needs to Fund Global Food Aid Programs
Hunger crises can have global impacts. When we work together to solve hunger, we’re creating a safer world for everyone.
While we have long known that conflict drives food insecurity, the Dangerously Hungry report shows that the inverse is also true: Food insecurity drives conflict. WFP prioritizes providing lifesaving food to those who cannot feed themselves to solve hunger before it leads to conflict.
