We’re an international charity committed to saving the lives of malnourished children and supporting their families to beat hunger.

For more than 40 years, we’ve led the global movement that aims to end life-threatening hunger for good within our lifetimes. Our teams are on the front lines – treating and preventing malnutrition in some of the world’s most remote places.

We empower people to provide for themselves, see their children grow up strong, and help their communities prosper.

Thanks to generous support from people like you, we’re creating better ways to deal with hunger.

Your Impact

Around the world, 2.3 million children under the age of five die every year because they don’t have the food they need to keep them healthy.

In just six weeks, Action Against Hunger is able to get a malnourished child back on the path to recovery. We also provide families with advice on nutrition and good hygiene practices.
