Join the Movement
There are many ways you can join the movement to help end world hunger.
#1 – Help the Movement: Donate now and save lives.
All funds contributed to the World Food Programme (WFP) via FromHungerToHope.com will help significantly in bridging the gap between hunger and hope.
For approximately $1 a day, WFP can provide a meal to four children through its global school feeding program.
Your donation goes to feeding people and can make the difference between hunger and hope.
Did you know that:
- $25 feeds a child in school for half the year
- $50 feeds one child in school for the entire academic year
- $70-100 per child provides supplementary food to a child under 2 years of age for 18 months
- $1,000 feeds 100 school children for one year

#2 – Grow the Movement: Spread the word with friends and family.
The easiest way to raise awareness and spark interest in this issue is to share your knowledge with those around you. Many people are interested in helping to end world hunger, but aren't sure where to start. Here are some ways you can spread the word and join the movement:
- Share the FromHungerToHope.com link with your friends via IM, a blog post, email... be creative!
- Share your story and participate in our groups on Facebook, MySpace, ThinkMTV, Flickr and YouTube.
- Show your support by joining our World Hunger Relief 2009 Cause on Facebook and recruit your friends and family.
#3 – Be the Movement: Volunteer for a hunger relief organization in your local community
- Ask your friends, family and work colleagues to collect canned or other packaged, non-perishable food items. Be sure to create a special event that highlights how much has been collected at the end of the drive. After the food drive, donate or present the collected food items to a local hunger relief agency in your community.
- Give the gift of time and talent by reaching out to a hunger or food relief charity. Organizations always need the time and talents of volunteers to keep their programs alive and to serve those in need. Your contributions will make a world of difference.
