Around the world, 2.3 million children under the age of five die every year because they don’t have the food they need to keep them healthy.

In just six weeks, Action Against Hunger is able to get a malnourished child back on the path to recovery. We also provide families with advice on nutrition and good hygiene practices.

You can help us reach more malnourished children like David from the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Why your support matters

Action Against Hunger treats more malnourished children than any other charity. We won’t give up until the world is free from hunger, but many more children need our help.

With your support, we can:

• ensure access to healthy, nutritious food
• provide clean water, good hygiene and health services
• train more community health workers to treat malnourished children
• inform more families about how to stay healthy and prevent more children from dying

Life-saving treatments are cheaply available and extremely effective. You can help us scale up our work to reach more children in need.
