Millions of children go to bed hungry every night.

When young children don’t have enough food, their brains and bodies suffer. It stops them growing and learning. It locks them and their families in a life of poverty.

Left too long, this hunger can kill. In fact, 2.3 million million children under the age of five die every year because they don’t have the food they need to keep them healthy.

Starving children urgently need our help. Will you donate to help end child hunger and deliver the food and nutrition that can save their lives?

Malnutrition has devastating effects on children

  • 2.3 Million

    More than 2 million children die from malnutrition every year.

  • 75%

    Three-quarters of malnourished children under five don't get the treatment they need.

  • 6 weeks

    It takes just 6 weeks to get a malnourished child back on the path to recovery.

Why your support matters

We won’t give up until no child is suffering from hunger, but there are so many more children in need right now who we can’t yet reach.

Your support can help:

  • Deliver life-saving, nutritious food to children and babies on the brink of starvation in conflicts and crises
  • Train more community health workers to spot the signs of malnourishment before it’s too late
  • Help families learn how to stay healthy and protect their children from hunger

Will you donate today to help fill more children’s tummies and save more lives?
