WHO WE ARE.
Founded on the belief that with a unified effort we can eradicate world hunger by 2030, End World Hunger Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to educating and inspiring people to support grass root projects that work with farmers and farm families to feed themselves and their communities without in food vulnerable countries.
The End World Hunger Foundation will research and select these highly effective nonprofit programs. We will keep donors informed of the progress of these projects so they know exactly where their money is going and how effectively it is used. Think of us as a mutual fund of highly effective programs.
