WFP SavES Lives
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has been on the frontlines of the world’s worst hunger crises, fighting hunger and famine since 1962. This year, we’re aiming to provide lifesaving meals to 140 million of the world’s most vulnerable people in more than 120 countries and territories.
What causes hunger?

Conflict
Conflict is the #1 driver of hunger, destroying lives and homes while creating instability.

Extreme Weather
More frequent and extreme weather disasters are destroying vulnerable communities.
How we fight hunger

When conflict erupts or natural disaster strikes, WFP is there. We feed families on the front lines of our planet’s most dangerous and complicated crises.


Providing food for children in school increases attendance and improves focus. We are the largest provider of school meals in the world.


We help small-scale farmers not only recover from disasters, but adapt to be resilient against them through skills training and resources.
