World Food Programme

World Vision has been partnering with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) for over 30 years and we are their largest non-governmental partner.

In 2025, funds from the 30-Hour Famine will also go towards supporting the WFP’s efforts to end hunger by:

  • Supporting pregnant and breastfeeding women, and children under five, with malnutrition treatment and nutrition education
  • Providing life-saving food and assistance to children and families affected by conflict, crises, violence, and climate-related disasters
  • Building climate-resilient and market-accessible farming communities, as well as post-disaster livelihood recovery

Together, we go beyond providing food assistance, working collaboratively to deliver holistic programmes that empower vulnerable communities to become self-reliant, both now and in the future.
