Journeying people from Survival to Significance.
Feed The Hungry’s aim is to journey people from wherever they are, into a better, fuller future. Everyone’s circumstances are different, and their needs are different. By providing innovative solutions to problems like hunger and lack of education, Feed The Hungry is moving people from Survival to Stability, to Sustainability and to Significance.
Feed The Hungry UK is a solution provider for the needs of hungry individuals, families and communities. Established in the UK in 2005, three goals motivate and sustain all our projects:
We feed those who are hungry.
We empower the church worldwide to reach local communities in need.
We share hope.
Feeding the hungry worldwide
When Feed The Hungry first visited the isolated Nakwanya in rural Uganda, it was a forgotten town. It had only three buildings surrounded by simple mud huts, with a few chickens and goats wandering around. It was also a place where families struggled to make ends meet. The children were malnourished, in threadbare clothes and without access to education.
In November 2021, Feed The Hungry sent a container with 300,000 fortified rice meals to Nakwanya. From that moment, the tide began to turn for these people.
A church was planted. A school opened. A medical clinic is on its way. And villagers are receiving aid to start businesses.
Not only that, but the Gospel is changing lives. The Church, which started with 50 people under a tree, is now 1400 people meeting in a new building.
It started with a container of food, but grew to be so much more: hope was restored to a struggling community and the hope of Christ is growing among them.
As a charity motivated by Jesus’ invitation to a full life, we follow his call. We seek to fulfill the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of people in crisis. These crises can be rooted in long-term poverty, created by global events such as Covid or caused by environmental disasters and war.
Through financial and prayer support from people like you, we deliver food, supplies and biblical teaching using a pastor-to-pastor, church-to-church strategy.
Our Every Child, Every Day projects provide food to over 645,000 children in 29 countries.
Our UK projects meet the needs of families in the Midlands facing food poverty, supporting over 1000 people every week.
Our Emergency Disaster Relief projects pop up with food and emergency supplies whenever a vulnerable community suffers a natural or manmade disaster.
How does Feed The Hungry use donations?
It’s important to us that we are transparent and faithful with the money and resources given to us, so that you can be confident it gets to the people who need it most. This means we operate in a particular way:
- Feed The Hungry directly oversees the entire relief process. This makes sure your contributions get into the hands of those who need it most, when they need it most.
- Before distributing food, we secure guarantees from local government agencies. This gives us the right to distribute food directly through local churches who know the people, and the need, in their communities.
- Under our direction and leadership, food is distributed as intended. Even more importantly, Christ is shared with hurting people who need to hear of his love!
- Around the world, we regularly feed 645,000 children.
