Children are dying before famine is even declared.

It’s one of the hardest realities to face when it comes to fighting global hunger. But this fact isn’t a plea to your heartstrings. It’s the truth — and it can’t wait.

When the world finally takes notice, it’s already too late for too many. Famine declarations come after crops fail, after markets collapse, after families have already lost everything.

According to the World Food Programme, 1.9 million people are already in the grip of famine. These are catastrophic crises in Gaza, Sudan, South Sudan, Haiti and Mali. MannaPack® meals are reaching families from every one of these countries.

Here’s the truth about hunger: It doesn’t wait for headlines. It grows quietly, missed meal by missed meal. By the time the world calls it “famine,” children have already been lost.

Our work with generous donor support meets hunger at its breaking point — and pushes it back. It feeds families facing famine now — and it allows us to move before famine is declared, while help can still make a difference.

Before a crisis makes the news.
Before a child’s body becomes too weak to recover.

Every single day, we receive urgent food requests from around the world. We can’t stop wars or droughts or inflation. But together, we can make sure that when everything else fails, food still arrives.

Our world is in a fragile moment — one that demands action. God is at work, and He can work through you.

So, here’s the simple truth about financial impact through FMSC:

• Less than 30¢ provides one meal.
• $106 feeds a child for an entire year.
• 88% of every donation goes directly to feeding kids.

This season brings many worthy causes asking for your support. Each has an important story to tell. We’re not here to compete for your attention or to stir emotion.

The truth about hunger is heavy — but it’s also holy work. If you can, we ask you to join us in this work to meet hunger with compassion and to act before it’s too late.
