This World Food Day, we’re celebrating our partnership with Lions Clubs International Foundation (LCIF) and the support Lions provide for the World Food Programme's (WFP) homegrown school meals programs.

A nutritious school meal can help children arrive in class ready to learn. Around the world, Lions members are helping make that possible.

Together, we’ve reached more than 653,000 children with nourishing meals and supported over 10,000 farmers — and that impact continues to grow.

By sourcing food locally, these programs nourish children and create opportunities for farmers and communities.

WFP is the world’s largest provider of school meals, and partners like LCIF help make this vital work possible.

Thank you to Lions everywhere for helping feed children and strengthen communities. 💛 💙

More than a quarter of a million children in Haiti could become malnourished from now until next spring — including nearly 94,000 with severe acute malnutrition who may not survive that long without urgent treatment.

Violence and displacement in Haiti are worsening access to food, healthcare and lifesaving nutrition services and the needs keep rising.

October 8 is , the national giving day for donor-advised funds (DAFs) and a great moment to put your DAF to work for causes you care about.

A DAF is like a charitable giving account: You can contribute, qualify for an immediate income tax deduction and recommend grants now or over time.

This DAF Day, consider recommending a grant to World Food Program USA to support the fight against global hunger.

No community can thrive when people are hungry — food security is the foundation of stability.

World Food Program USA echoes World Food Programme (WFP)’s condemnation of an aerial attack that hit two contracted trucks carrying WFP food commodities in South Kordofan, Sudan in the early hours of October 3. One driver was killed in the air strike. Our hearts are with his family, friends and colleagues.

📚 School meals not only keep children healthy, they improve learning outcomes, increase attendance and support local economies. Yet more than 100 million schoolchildren worldwide are still hungry — putting their education, nutrition and futures at risk.

The World Food Programme (WFP) is the world’s largest provider of school meals, delivering nutritious meals to 19.3 million schoolchildren in 63 countries in 2025.

This year, through our ERASE HUNGER campaign, we aim to raise enough funds by World Food Day on October 16 to send a total of 1 million school meals. 🍎

Your gift can make an immediate difference:

$5 can feed a student for a month
$25 can feed a student for a semester
$50 can feed a student for a year

Renewed fighting along the western coast of Yemen has forced approximately 125,000 people to flee their homes in a matter of days.

This escalation in conflict comes as hunger is already severe — around half the country is facing a hunger crisis, and about 500,000 children under five are suffering from life-threatening malnutrition.

The World Food Programme (WFP) has already delivered food assistance to 45,000 people affected by the escalating conflict and is preparing to reach up to 1.5 million more if the situation worsens. But with funding critically low, the scale and speed of that response could be limited.

Today is International Day of Peace. 🕊️ But peace can’t take root when families are hungry.

The World Food Programme (WFP) believes food is a pathway to peace.

We’re proud to support community members and humanitarians around the world who are building stability and resilience from the ground up — starting with food. 🌽

We are pleased to welcome Luke J. Lindberg as the next Executive Director of World Food Programme (WFP). His appointment continues a proud legacy of American leadership in the fight against global hunger. Luke brings deep expertise in agriculture, food security and international partnerships, along with a strong commitment to accountability and results. The challenge before us is immense, and so is the opportunity. Together, we will continue to fight for a world where no child, family or community goes hungry.

To continue our Myth vs. Fact series, let’s address a common myth: emergency food aid alone will end hunger crises.

🚨 While emergency food aid is vital for helping families survive and recover from acute food insecurity, it isn’t enough on its own. The World Food Programme (WFP) knows emergency assistance must be paired with long-term investments to end hunger for good.

Food, cash transfers and nutrition support in emergencies are lifesaving, but we also need longer-term solutions — like investing in farmers, restoring land, providing school meals and building resilience to climate shocks — to tackle the root causes of hunger. 🌱

This dual approach — short-term relief paired with long-term support — helps communities get back on their feet after emergencies and build resilience, so they’re less vulnerable when the next crisis hits.

More than 650,000 Sudanese refugees and asylum seekers in South Sudan may lose lifesaving food aid because of severe funding shortages.

Families who have fled war and hunger are facing even more hardship. The World Food Programme (WFP) has already been forced to prioritize the needs of the most vulnerable refugee families, who are receiving only half rations.

Without immediate funding, hundreds of thousands of families already living on the edge could be cut off from vital food and nutrition assistance. This would heighten the risks of malnutrition, exploitation and abuse — especially for women and children.
