Food Security : Take Action
Action Tools
Right now, more than one billion people around the world go to bed hungry each night. That's more than triple the population of the U.S. alone.
With a smart strategy, we can cut hunger in half by 2015. However, U.S. food security and hunger relief programs are spread over dozens of federal agencies, hampering the effort to provide coordinated and effective aid to the world's most vulnerable.
