Help end hunger by reducing your food waste

While 811 million people go to bed hungry each night, 1/3 of food is lost or wasted, amounting to a financial loss of about US$ 1 trillion annually. You can help fight hunger by wasting less food and turning your savings from that positive practice into lifesaving food for those who need it most through the United Nations World Food Programme. Together, we can #StopTheWaste and end hunger.

The United Nations World Food Programme is the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. We are the world’s largest humanitarian organization, saving lives in emergencies and using food assistance to build a pathway to peace, stability and prosperity for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate change.
