Help meet children’s most basic developmental need: food.

Because of the global food crisis, Compassion children and their families are missing meals. But you can help provide them food.

Escaping poverty requires healthy development

If a child regularly goes hungry, he or she cannot develop like they should. When his stomach is rumbling and aching, he’s not concentrating on math or history lessons. When her mind is wondering when she’ll be able to eat, she cannot hear how much God loves her.

This global food crisis is causing the most severe shortage we’ve seen in 70 years — and children living in poverty are the most vulnerable and hardest hit:

Together, we can combat this crisis to deliver food in the countries most affected — but the cost is beyond what basic child sponsorship can cover.

YOU can make an immediate difference! Give today to sustain Compassion children and their families through this dire crisis.
