Conflict is the number one driver of hunger around the world.

Millions of people in places like Gaza, Ukraine and Sudan have been forced to leave their homes because of war.

We know that when armed conflict arises, hunger almost always follows. With war comes displacement, disruptions to local supply chains and soaring food prices. Humanitarian aid is blocked. Families are driven into poverty and struggle to access food.

How your monthly gift can help

For many of us, being forced to leave our home to escape violence is unimaginable. But it’s the reality for thousands of families around the world today.

Your monthly gift could help provide access to food, clean water, and money to buy much-needed items, from hygiene kits to cooking equipment.

You could also provide shelter and psychological support for people fleeing the horrors of armed conflict.

Monthly gifts will help support all areas of our work, wherever the need is greatest.
