rise against hunger
Danville San Ramon Rotary is a proud supporter and regular sponsor of Rise Against Hunger in collaboration with the other Super 680 Clubs. We provide between 20,000-30,000 meals per year.
PATHWAYS TO END HUNGER
From the implementation of sustainable community development projects to our meal packaging program that harnesses the passion of local volunteers, we strive to make an impact on hunger. Targeting remote, last-mile communities within hunger pockets worldwide, we work through local leaders to build resilience, self-sufficiency, and empowerment.
NOURISHING LIVES
While long-term food security projects take root, communities facing hunger still need to meet their basic needs today. We provide nutritional support through Rise Against Hunger meals, which contain 20 vitamins and minerals, and local regional procurement, which procures foods locally, to meet community needs.
RESPONDING
EMERGENCIES
From droughts to floods, in conflict zones and transitioning political situations, food is often the most immediate need. When everyday access to food, wages and market systems are destroyed in the wake of emergencies, Rise Against Hunger works through a network of in-country partners to address these needs.
EMPOWERING COMMUNITIES
Agriculture and Income-Generating Initiatives
Through locally led agriculture and income-generating programs, we bolster crop production and incomes by promoting improved agricultural methods, business skills and market access. With training and access to quality seeds and fertilizers, farmers can increase production and harvest a variety of nutrition-sensitive crops.
GROWING THE MOVEMENT
Rise Against Hunger recognizes that hunger will not end without creating a global movement. We engage hundreds of thousands of volunteers and advocates each year to build awareness and activation.
