‘For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat' - Matthew 25:35-37
Conflict and the changing climate continue to be leading causes for the rising numbers of people who see hunger in their future. The UN State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World (SOFI) report estimates that up to 828 million people were facing hunger in 2021. That is 22 times the population of Canada.
Join us to learn first hand from people working on the ground, and find out how you can be a voice for ending global hunger.
