You can change a child’s life.

For children like Munira, hunger can be deadly. In fact, malnutrition is one of the leading causes of death for children under 5 – and sadly it’s on the rise. Rising global food prices, conflict and the climate crisis, means more and more children aren’t getting the food they need. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

Treating malnutrition is cheap and effective – and it takes as little as six weeks. With special nutrient-packed peanut paste, expert care and support at our feeding centres children can make a full recovery.

Will you join thousands of others and stop life-threatening hunger in its tracks?

We know exactly how to help babies and children recover from malnutrition – but we can’t do it without your help. A small gift each month means we can reach and help more children like Munira. So they can grow up healthy, happy and strong. Please sign up today.

Who are Action Against Hunger?

Life-threatening hunger is predictable, preventable and treatable, so a world without it is possible.

We tackle it where it hits and stop it. Whenever and wherever people need our help.

More than that, we work to prevent it in the first place by leading research that will create a world free from hunger. Forever.

• We deliver life-saving care to people who need it.
• We lead research to drive forward understanding of how to predict, prevent and treat life-threatening hunger.
