The Campaign to End Malnutrition
Every year, some 20 million children across the world suffer from severe acute malnutrition. More than five million of them will die. Countless others will suffer permanent physical damage, including stunted growth and developmental delays. In response to this growing crisis, Action Against Hunger has launched the Campaign to End Malnutrition.

Action Against Hunger joined forces with the Howard G. Buffet Foundation and a select number of nonprofits to launch an ambitious new undertaking called the “Global Water Initiative” (GWI). The GWI aims to provide comprehensive solutions to communities lacking drinking water and proper sanitation around the world, but also serves as an exciting new model for nonprofits and major private foundations—one designed to enhance nonprofit capacities while scaling-up the reach and impact of their programs.
