Mission

Established in 1946, Freedom from Hunger brings innovative and sustainable self-help solutions to the fight against chronic hunger and poverty. Together with local partners, we equip families with resources they need to build futures of health, hope and dignity. Freedom from Hunger works in developing nations where chronic hunger is suffered by a large portion of a country's population. Our programs combine microfinance with health and lifeskills services to equip very poor families to improve their incomes, safeguard their health and achieve lasting food security. To implement and expand our programs sustainably, we collaborate with a network of more than 50 local organizations in 16 countries.
