No Family Should

Go Hungry

Millions of people struggle to access basic food every day. NRF delivers nutritious meals, food baskets, and seasonal aid to orphans, widows, and families in crisis.

A Hunger Crisis
That Demands Action

In the countries where NRF operates, conflict, climate change, drought, and economic instability have deepened the hunger crisis. For orphans and widows who have lost their income, hunger is a daily reality.

Children grow up malnourished. Their growth is stunted. Generations are being lost to food scarcity.

When families do not have to spend every hour searching for food, they can focus on education, work, and building sustainable livelihoods.

NRF’s Feed the Poor campaign addresses this crisis directly, distributing food to orphans, widows, and destitute families across Iraq, Yemen, Pakistan, and East Africa.

School Meals

For many children in East Africa, the meal they receive at school is the only substantial food they eat all day. NRF provides a hot meal during the school day, consisting of meat with rice or beans with rice, plus water. When children know they will receive a meal at school, they are more likely to attend. Attendance rises. Concentration improves. Academic performance increases. School meals also help reduce child labour, as children are more likely to stay in education when they receive regular, nutritious food.

What Your Generosity Achieves

Nourishment

Families receive the essential nutrition they need to survive and thrive. Children get the food their growing bodies require.

Education

When children are fed, they can focus on learning. School meal programmes keep children in classrooms and improve academic performance.

Better health

Adequate nutrition prevents malnutrition, strengthens immune systems, and reduces the vulnerability of children to illness and disease.

Dignity

Receiving food during Ramadan, Eid, and throughout the year ensures that families can observe traditions, share meals, and live with dignity even in the most difficult circumstances.

Breaking the cycle

When families do not have to spend every waking hour searching for food, they can focus on education, work, and building sustainable livelihoods.
