New: Our COVID-19 Relief and Resilience Plan |
One of the biggest challenges we face today as a global community is uncertainty: How long will the COVID-19 crisis last, and how will we recover? At Rise AgainstHunger, we’ve also asked how we’ll continue to reach 1.4 million beneficiaries worldwide while our volunteer events are on hold and our meal inventory is rapidly shrinking. In response, we are pleased to share our three-step COVID-19 Relief and Resilience Plan. With this plan in motion, we know that we will be able to support and reach vulnerable communities in crisis. Learn more about our plan and how you can take action now! |

“Rice Goes First”: Our Partnerships to Distribute Rice Around The World |
You may have heard our Rise Against Hunger staff say, “Rice Goes Last” at meal packaging events — but when it came to supporting our local communities in the midst of the health crisis, rice came first! In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have postponed all meal packaging events, and our organization now has an abundance of previously purchased rice in our warehouses that can be utilized. Through collaboration with our partners, we are distributing rice to local food banks and humanitarian partners across the country. Check out a few photos to see how we’re doing what we can to help out during this time of need! |
