HOW YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Locally or nationally, at school or in your community, there are many ways you can help save millions of Africans from starvation.

Make a direct donation or simply spread the word to fellow students, school friends or work colleagues.
Here are a few suggestions:


  • Write, email or call your representatives in government

  • Make an online donation to WFP or, if you are a resident of the United States, to US Friends of WFP.


  • Hold a vigil, seminar or prayer for December the 16th to raise awareness about hunger in Africa.


  • Get a local club or social group to organise a fund-raising event for the Africa Hunger Alert


  • Understand what it is like to not have enough to eat by limiting your school lunch to a bowl of rice. Donate what you save to the campaign.

  • Sponsor a school study programme educating others about hunger in Africa


If your school, college or local club has made a difference to the Africa Hunger Alert, email your experiences to wfpinfo@wfp.org. We will publish a selection of your emails.
