One in four children under age five is severely malnourished.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Every voice matters. With your support, we can reach the people with the power and resources to make hunger a problem of the past.
It’s more than growing enough food.
It’s getting the right nutrition to the people who need it.
As Christians and activists, we can leverage our collective power and resources to make hunger a problem of the past.
Get InvolvedChurches, charities, food banks, and nonprofit organizations can’t solve hunger alone. Government programs and policies play an especially important role. Thanks to an abundance of resources, federal nutrition programs provide 10 times as much food assistance as private churches and charities combined.
When enough people speak up, government leaders listen.

Hunger affects every community.
However, at Bread, we see a disproportionate impact on women, communities of color, and rural communities – both in the U.S. and around the world. We are led by the voices of each community to seek nourishment and well-being for all. More voices are essential to advocate with those most impacted for equitable and effective programs that will end hunger in these communities.
18 million U.S. households experienced food insecurity in 2023. As a community across the country, we have the opportunity to stem this ongoing crisis and ensure all Americans have access to nutritious food.
