Bread for the World is a collective Christian voice urging our nation’s decision makers to end hunger at home and abroad. By changing policies, programs and conditions that allow hunger and poverty to persist, we provide help and opportunity far beyond the communities in which we live.
 |
Bread for the World members write personal letters and emails to and meet with our representatives in Congress. Working through churches, campuses and other organizations, we engage more people in advocacy. Bread for the World works in a bipartisan way. We enjoy the support of many different church bodies. Bread for the World collaborates with other organizations to build the political commitment needed to overcome hunger and poverty. For example, Bread for the World is a founding partner in Bono's ONE Campaign. |

God's grace in Jesus Christ moves us to help our neighbors, whether they live in the next house, the next state or the continent. Food is a basic need and it is unjust that so many people go without enough to eat. We can end hunger in our time. Everyone, including our government, must do their part. By making our voices heard in Congress, we make our nation's laws more fair and compassionate to those in need. |

Every year, Bread for the World invites churches across the country to take up a nationwide Offering of Letters to Congress on an issue that is important to hungry people. Year after year, Bread members have won far-reaching changes for hungry and poor people. |
