The Food Superheroes - Fighting Hunger
Hello, we are Team Food Super Heroes. Thank you in advance for taking the time to consider helping with our cause. I have seen firsthand how families can struggle to put food on the table to feed their family. Raising four children was not easy, and some years were harder than others. The last thing any parent wants to see is their child hungry, and there's nothing you can do. The U.S. has programs to help needy families with assistance programs, helping them until they can get on their feet again. Other countries outside the U.S. do not have these programs available to help them. This is where and how we can help families and get them fed.

A basic physiological need that everyone has and NEEDS to survive is not so simple for everyone. Food insecurity is a condition of not having enough or the right kinds of food available to support a healthy body.

Global Facts on Food Insecurity (Action Against Hunger, 2024):

733 million people go to bed hungry each night

Hunger affects almost 30% of people worldwide

1 in 11 people suffer from hunger

50% of deaths from food insecurity are children

Action Against Hunger takes a tailored approach to address communities in need. Our donations not only help feed those in need, but additional resources are also used to help start up local markets. They also help communities create sustainable food sources.

The hunger in our society is a concerning social issue. Many homeless people here in the US don’t have enough food to eat and go to bed hungry. Raising awareness is important so that we help our community out through food banks and donations. A good portion of the US population are living paycheck to paycheck, and many are homeless and with food insecurities, not knowing when/where their next meal is going to come from. Inflation has gotten out of control, exacerbating the problem of hunger in America and abroad. Having healthy food to eat is a basic human right that cannot be ignored.

Right now, millions of people across the U.S. are facing hunger, an issue that is both heartbreaking and urgent. Families, children, and even seniors are struggling to get enough food to sustain themselves every single day. Despite living in a country with abundant resources, the reality of hunger persists. As difficult to comprehend, yet it is true: hunger is real, and it is happening all around us right now.

We, a group of students from the University of North Texas, have been working on a class project for our social engineering course. We chose to partner with Action Against Hunger because we care deeply about ending hunger. We believe no one should have to go to bed hungry, no matter what.

Why Hunger is Such a Big Problem

Almost 1 in 9 people in the U.S. struggle with food insecurity—that’s over 38 million lives, including 11 million children. It’s devastating to imagine a country where food overflows, so many families don’t have enough to eat. The problem isn’t the lack of food; it’s that millions simply can’t afford it, and it is a reality that worsens with every new global crisis.

Right now, hunger isn’t something that can wait. We can’t sit around and hope it gets better on its own. We need to act, and we can make a difference—if we all come together, we can fight hunger and create change.

What Your Donation Will Do

Action Against Hunger is an organization that’s been fighting hunger for years. They don’t just give food—they work on long-term solutions to make sure people don’t go hungry in the future. Here’s how your donation can make a real difference:

Food relief for families who need meals right now.

Nutrition programs to help people learn to eat healthy, especially for kids.

Sustainable farming projects to help communities grow their own food.

Clean water initiatives because clean water is a big part of fighting hunger too.

Every dollar helps, and it all goes toward real change.

Why Now?

The need is urgent. Hunger is getting worse, especially after the pandemic. Inflation is hitting people hard, and many families are struggling more than ever. But we can’t just sit back and accept this. We can step up and make a difference—today.

How You Can Help

We’re asking for your help to raise money for Action Against Hunger. Every dollar you give will go directly to help people who are hungry right now. Whether it’s $5, $10, $50, or more—every bit counts and makes a real impact.

We know there are a lot of causes out there, but hunger is something we can all fix together. If we all pitch in, we can do something that matters.

Thank you for reading, thank you for caring, and thank you for any help you can give. Let’s fight hunger together.

Together, we can make sure no one goes to bed hungry.

Help Seeds of Impact Feed the Hungry
Hello, we are Seeds of Impact, and today we are asking for your help to combat a crisis that many cannot escape: hunger. Hunger is not just an empty stomach; it is a harsh reality that keeps children awake at night, their cries unheard in the darkness, their tiny bodies too weak to play, learn, or grow. It’s parents sacrificing their own meals so their children can have just a little more, their hearts breaking as they watch their loved ones suffer. Whole communities are left hopeless, their livelihoods stolen by droughts, floods, and the unyielding grip of poverty. Together with Action Against Hunger, we are fighting to change this reality—but we cannot do it alone. Your support is a beacon of hope for families on the brink of despair.

We believe that every child deserves more than mere survival; they deserve the chance to thrive. Your generosity will help us provide life-saving nutrition and healthcare, giving children the strength to dream of a future beyond hunger. For families, a simple meal is more than food on the table—it’s a promise of stability, a sign that someone cares, and a glimpse of a life where they don’t have to choose between feeding their children and keeping a roof over their heads. We are committed to empowering communities to rebuild, to plant the seeds of health, growth, and resilience. But we need you to stand with us in this fight for a better world.

In times of crisis, every second counts. Families caught in the aftermath of natural disasters and humanitarian crises cannot wait. That’s why we rush to deliver emergency food, clean water, and medical care to those who need it most. But beyond immediate relief, we are focused on creating lasting change—building wells, providing sanitation, and teaching sustainable farming to ensure that these communities are not just surviving but thriving. Your donation is not just a gift; it’s a lifeline that turns despair into hope and transforms seeds of support into fields of change. Please, join us in this mission to create a world where no one has to go to bed hungry. Together, we can make that vision a reality.

Hunger Statistics Worldwide

152 Million More People Face Hunger Than in 2019

50% of Child Deaths Are Linked to Hunger

733 million people (1 in 11) go hungry every day

1.33 million people around the world are experiencing famine or famine-like conditions.

Projections are that nearly 670 million people (8% of the world population) will still be facing hunger in 2030

71.5% of the population cannot afford a healthy diet, compared to 6.3% in high-income countries.

Personal Overview

Hello, we are Seeds of Impact, and we are seeking your aid in combating hunger. Let me tell you, Hunger is not just an empty stomach. It is children going to bed without food, it is parents unable to feed their children, and communities looking hopeless. That is what we are doing in collaboration with Action Against Hunger but I can't do this alone. With your support those who need it the most may get food, health, and hope for positive change.

Nutrition & Health

Every child deserves to be taken care of and receive the necessary nutrition to continue in healthy lifestyles. Ensuring that children have the resources to access nutritious foods helps us give them what they need to grow, learn, and develop. For families, it is more than just a meal; it is a promise of stability and a sense of strength to help them feel hopeful when looking forward.

Water, Sanitation & Hygiene included some partial Research & Innovation

As water and sanitation are basic human rights, many people sadly do not have access to them. Just picture the day-to-day crises and dangers that families today face due to the sheer lack of basic necessities. We're gathering funding towards providing clean water, safe sanitation, and restoring a sense of dignity to the needy.

Emergency Response

In times of crisis, every instant counts. Action Against Hunger creates urgency in rushing their food, clean water, and emergency treatment on the front lines whenever there is a natural disaster or humanitarian crisis. We are able through your assistance, to go beyond simply being providers of immediate care and instead focus on the building blocks necessary for real change in communities. I appreciate you coming with me on this journey. A world that has no starving people, is a world that we can and should create.

Action Against Hunger: Fighting Hunger, Saving Lives

In a world where millions of people go to bed hungry every night, Action Against Hunger is making a significant impact. As a global humanitarian organization, Action Against Hunger is dedicated to ending hunger and malnutrition. For over 45 years, we have been at the forefront of the fight against hunger, providing lifesaving treatment to children and their families in over 50 countries.

About Action Against Hunger:

Action Against Hunger is committed to saving lives by eliminating hunger through the prevention, detection, and treatment of malnutrition. Our mission is to save lives and build resilient communities by addressing the root causes of hunger. We work in emergency situations caused by conflict, war, and natural disasters, as well as in long-term development contexts to ensure sustainable change.

The Social Issue:

Hunger is a critical issue that affects nearly 40% of the world’s population. Every night, 733 million people go to bed hungry. Malnutrition is responsible for nearly half of all deaths in children under five, claiming the lives of more than two million children each year. Addressing this issue is crucial because hunger not only affects physical health but also impedes cognitive development, economic productivity, and overall quality of life (AAH, 2024).

Research and Statistics:

Global Hunger: One in 11 people suffer from hunger worldwide.

Food Insecurity: Almost 30% of people globally are food insecure.

Child Mortality: 50% of child deaths are linked to hunger.

Our Impact:

Action Against Hunger’s proven solutions save lives. We provide emergency food assistance, clean water, and health services to those in need. Our programs reach 24 million people annually, and 90% of every dollar donated goes directly to our field programs. We work with local communities to ensure sustainable change, empowering them to grow their own food, raise livestock, and improve their health (AAH, 2024).

A Story of Hope:

Meet Amina, a mother from Kenya. Severe drought had left her community without food or water. Amina’s youngest child was severely malnourished when our team found them. Thanks to the support of donors like you, we were able to provide Amina’s family with the nutrition and medical care they needed to survive. Today, Amina’s child is healthy and thriving, a testament to the power of compassion and generosity (AAH, 2024).

How You Can Help:

Your donation can make a difference. By supporting Action Against Hunger, you are helping to save lives and build a world free from hunger. This means every contribution, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to ending this crisis. Together, we can ensure that no child goes to bed hungry.

Hunger Busters, Join Together to End World Hunger!
Action Against Hunger is a global non-profit organization which leads the world in the ongoing fight against hunger by providing access to food, clean water, and sustainable solutions in over 45 countries.

Action Against Hunger tackles global hunger, an extremely important social issue which affects an estimated “35% of the global population” (Concern Worldwide U.S., 2024).

Malnutrition remains one of the most prevalent issues among youth on a global scale. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2023, “nearly half of deaths among children under 5 years old are linked to malnutrition.”

Poverty is simultaneously a cause and effect of malnutrition. The World Health Organization emphasizes that “people who are poor are more likely to be affected by different forms of malnutrition,” and that malnutrition can result in snowballing issues such as increased healthcare costs and reduced productivity/increased lethargy, both of which only perpetuate the cycle of poverty and malnutrition. By supporting Action Against Hunger, donors can help to interrupt and put a stop to this cycle by directly providing for those in need.

The Disasters & Emergencies that hit the world unexpectedly ; forces displacement, disruption of food production, causes damages to infrastructure and increases health risk. “Cyclone Batsirai left thousands of people in severe and urgent need of aid in Madagascar. Our teams stepped up to help, especially in the east, where destroyed harvests could cause hunger” (Action Against Hunger, n.d.-b). Addressing these challenges requires coordinated efforts to provide immediate relief and support long-term recovery and resilience-building in affected communities, Action Against Hunger aims to mitigate the impact of disasters and help communities become more resilient.

The money we make from our campaign will be donated to the organization's page via their preferred method. Once our donation is submitted the organization splits the donations up in many ways. $0.90 of every dollar donated goes directly to their field programs. Every $50 raised funds a full course of Ready-To-Use Therapeutic Food (RUTF)(Action Against Hunger, 2024).

Nour’s Story

We would like to highlight an article published by Action Against Hunger which follows a young lady named Nour during her time of struggle because of war in Lebanon. On October 8, 2023, Nour moved into her new home as a new bride alongside her husband. Tragically, that was the same day that the crisis in Lebanon really began, and their new home was destroyed in an airstrike only days later. For Nour, the loss was devastating - not only did they lose their new home, they lost memories and security. “It felt like all the hard work and effort we put into choosing every corner of that house was lost,” she said (Action Against Hunger, 2024). Nour has seen more than many would believe, yet she says that although she has been displaced there are others who have it worse. It was during this hardship that Action Against Hunger began providing support to those displaced by the conflict, and Nour was able to witness the impact that the food, clean water and hygiene kits had on the community. Nour now continues to work with Action Against Hunger in an effort to help others receive the same help she once needed. By supporting our campaign, you can directly help Action Against Hunger provide assistance to people like Nour; together, we can help provide the resources they need to survive and rebuild.

Less Hungry Kids in the 21st Century
I wasn't originally planning to do this, but after my little experiment eating for $1 a day for a week, I was made to consider what life might look like with constant restrictions on what I could eat.

Honestly, that sucks. Nobody should have to live like that if they don't want to. I feel lucky to have always had enough to eat as a kid and I would like to live in a world where that's the case for every child.

If you enjoyed my video and have some spare funds, I invite to help me make a tiny difference. Thank you.

WMS Elementary World Hunger Project
WMS Elementary is trying to help people that are starving in many countries, especially Chad, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ukraine, Somalia, and Madagascar. Our classroom is working hard studying what caused world hunger in these countries and what we can do about it. Based on our studies, most of the countries that are suffering the most in this matter are located in Africa, Southeast Asia, Central America, and western part of South America.

We chose this cause because we believe it is one of the important problems to resolve. Outside of this page, we will also be making posters to educate others, participating in a Walk-a-Thon, and hopefully more.

If you would like to help this cause, please donate. We appreciate your generosity.

sincerely,

Feed Zimbabwe
As you probably know, Zimbabwe is in the throes of a hunger crisis, driven by climate change and the almost total collapse of their economy. This beautiful country has been through so much and now faces a desperate humanitarian crisis. Zimbabwe has the highest inflation rate in the world and, on top of that, is in the midst of a devastating drought. There are fuel shortages, widespread poverty, a lack of clean drinking water, power outages, and now, coronavirus on top of it. Figures vary, but is is estimated that 90% of the economically active population are out of work. Consider that for a moment!

But the people of Zimbabwe are tough, tenacious and determined and they will overcome, and set their country back on course. But right now, they need our help. If the coronavirus has taught us anything, it is that we are all in this together.

A crisis in any part of the world, is a crisis for all the world.
In this first campaign I am launching in support of our brothers and sisters in Zimbabwe, I am hoping to raise funds to help alleviate this desperate situation, in a small but impactful way. Please make whatever contribution you can and forward this link to GoFundMe to your friends and family.

All funds will be channeled directly through the non-profit Action Against Hunger. You can visit there website at: https://www.actionagainsthunger.org/countries/africa/zimbabwe

Thank you so much.
