Food for the Hungry

Food for the Hungry was founded by Dr. Larry Ward in 1971. We are a Christian, international relief and development organization which helps some of the world's most disadvantaged people in more than 35 countries worldwide. Through child development programs, agriculture and clean-water projects, health and nutrition programs, education and micro-enterprise loans, we seek to end spiritual and physical hungers. You can become involved by donating,joining our Prayer Network,sponsoring a child, travelingoverseason a short-term team orliving overseaswith our longer-term missionary group,"Hunger Corps", or becoming an advocate via our stateside Volunteer Ministry.
