A night of fine dining, entertainment, and fundraising
For many, even the most basic nutritious food is further out of reach than ever before. Life-threatening hunger is predictable, preventable and treatable, so a world without it is possible. In 2022, we supported 28 million people across 55 countries.
We train parents and healthcare workers to spot the first signs of malnutrition. We deliver life-saving care to people who need it. We have a team of nutrition experts who carry out research and share it with others in the sector – including the UN – in order to improve the effectiveness, scalability and sustainability of our nutrition programmes globally. We’re at the forefront of saving lives following major disasters and emergencies.
You can help us raise vital funds to continue our mission to end world hunger. For good. Will you join? Buy your tickets now.
