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 is best known for its proven self-help service, Credit with Education. We also provide other services that respond directly to the opportunity and need presented in our partners' countries, including the Reach Initiative, and our special education services to help poor families fight malaria and become financially literate.
