Rise Against Hunger

Taking action to end world hunger took center court in Georgia last weekend. 🏓

We hosted our fourth annual charity pickleball tournament — and Georgia’s largest charity tournament — on June 6 in partnership with Life Time Peachtree Corners.

Lots of Hunger Champions joined us to “serve” (not just pay) it forward. The tournament raised enough to provide hundreds of kids with meals for an entire school year!

Ending hunger takes more than one solution. It requires a layered approach rooted in partnership, resilience and long-term impact.

1️⃣ Meet Immediate Nutritional Needs Through Meal Packaging Events.
Every Rise Against Hunger meal packaging event helps provide nutritious, volunteer-packaged meals for communities facing food insecurity around the world.

2️⃣ Support Education and Opportunity for Children.
When children are fed through school feeding programs, attendance improves and learning takes root. To further support the next generation’s bright futures, Rise Against Hunger works to strengthen school infrastructure and promote hygiene.

3️⃣ Foster Economic Empowerment for Families and Farmers.
Through sustainable agriculture and income-generating projects, we help farmers increase household incomes and strengthen local food systems — because economic stability is essential to ending hunger.

The meals provide more than critical nutrition for people worldwide. Rise Against Hunger works strategically to provide meals that address immediate needs while also fostering long-term food security through education and economic empowerment programs.

A safe kitchen, clean water and reliable access to school meals.

These are the kinds of projects supporters like you have helped make possible in communities around the world. From Kenya to Haiti, Honduras to Tanzania, investments in school infrastructure help create healthier environments where students can learn, grow and thrive.

Now, we're working to fund the next project.

Across the communities we serve, there are schools waiting for resources that can make a meaningful difference:
🍲 Safe kitchen spaces for meal preparation
💧 Clean water access for students and staff
🌱 School improvements that support long-term food security and resilience

We're working toward our goal of raising $10,000 to bring the next project to life.

Today is , which focuses on raising awareness about the 673 million people facing hunger globally and taking action to address this issue.

2.3 billion people also don’t have consistent access to enough food. This isn't just a statistic. Each digit is a real person with a real future waiting to be fulfilled.

You help change the trajectory. A world without hunger can become a reality when we collectively work together. If you’ve volunteered or donated to our mission, you’ve made progress possible.

This World Hunger Day, we've set a goal to raise $10,000 to provide microgrants to schools around the world. Hunger is about more than food alone, so we're helping schools establish safe kitchens, clean water and reliable infrastructure to nourish students every day.

On May 15 in Draper, Utah, a gong rang out dozens of times — each time marking progress toward BambooHR's goal to package 130,000 meals with Rise Against Hunger. 📦

In just three hours, 900 BambooHR employees reached that goal, showing what is possible with dedication and altruism. The meals packaged that afternoon will provide over 600 people with consistent access to nutritious food for a year.

The event was particularly special because BambooHR and Rise Against Hunger hit an impactful milestone together. BambooHR reached (and exceeded!) 500,000 meals collectively packaged since our partnership began in 2017!

In Kisii, Kenya, Deborah is on the path to a bright future!

While attending Sosera Primary School, Deborah received daily meals through the Feed for Knowledge school feeding program, implemented by Rise Against Hunger and our partner Rural Family Hope. With the nourishment she needed to thrive academically, she became one of the school's top students!

Deborah has since graduated from primary school, but her story doesn't end there. She now attends St. Charles Ichuni Girls Secondary School with a one-year full scholarship and is pursuing her dreams!

Deborah's story is a powerful reminder of how access to nutrition and education can help students reach their full potential. This is the impact The Journey of a Meal makes in communities all over the world — a seed of hope that blooms into transformation!
