about food for the hungry

Go ED. is a ministry of Food for the Hungry, an international relief and development organization reaching out to the poor in over 26 countries. The vision of Food for the Hungry extends far beyond temporary relief - the goal is to transform communities and help them become self-sustaining. It is called Vision of a Community, and it means going into the hard places - areas facing extreme poverty and hardship - and sharing the hope and love of Jesus Christ.

Our Vision of a Community helps us to target the end of both physical and spiritual hunger. We work with churches, community leaders, and families to accomplish this goal. Basic needs for food and water are met, along with developmental needs such as education, agriculture, health, discipleship, and church development. The task of ending worldwide hunger can seem overwhelming - up to 1,000 a day die of hunger - but Food for the Hungry believes that "since they die one at a time, we can save them one at a time."

You can make a difference

You can make a difference in the lives of the poor. There are many ways you can unite with Food for the Hungry in the fight against physical and spiritual poverty. Our Short-term Team Ministry offers you the chance to build an up-close relationship with a developing community by participating in community driven projects involving education, construction, evangelism, medical assistance and many other areas.



Our Volunteer Ministry is a way for you to speak out for those who have no voice, advocating for the poor within your church, school, and community. You will receive training on how you can be part of a grassroots movement and get others around you involved with the ministries at Food for the Hungry, including Child Sponsorship, and Adopt-A-Community.

Our Long-Term Hunger Corps missionary program will place you in the midst of a community, reaching out in Christ to those in need and empowering churches, leaders, and families to reach their God-given potential and become self-sustaining.

In Micah 6:8 it says, "…and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?" You will find that as you reach out to help those in need, it will be a transforming experience that will change your life!

One person can make a difference in changing the world one life at a time. Will you be that one person?
