Your legacy gift plays a critical role in ensuring Action Against Hunger can continue to save the lives of children as we work to end hunger for all, for good.

To end world hunger and malnutrition, we must consistently deploy expertise, innovation and partnerships to implement long-term solutions that address the underlying root causes. Your legacy gift ensures that we have the resources necessary to tackle urgent threats and treat acutely malnourished children while also providing sustainable solutions to hunger and access to clean water for millions of people across the globe.

With your support, we have revolutionized nutrition and treatment protocols that have saved the lives of children and families. Legacy gifts of all sizes are crucial for leveraging this success to serve more vulnerable communities, and ultimately, creating a world where no child must go hungry.

WHY OUR WORK MATTERS

Nearly half of all child deaths worldwide are from causes related to undernutrition, even though it is:

  1. PREDICTABLE: We know where and when to expect acute undernutrition.
  2. PREVENTABLE: We know how to help children stay healthy.
  3. TREATABLE: Just $50 can provide a child with lifesaving treatment.
