Save the Children Action Network is the political voice for kids.
John,
Hunger takes a devastating toll on children’s minds, bodies and futures – and can be life-threatening.
With millions around the world suffering from severe malnutrition, it’s time for the U.S. to take a stand.
Because no child deserves to die from hunger or grow up unable to reach their full potential.
Please, ask our leaders to commit to fighting global hunger ahead of next week’s critical U.N. General Assembly. [[link removed]]

John, do you know what malnutrition does to a child?
Without enough nutritious food – especially in a child’s first 1,000 days – their mental and physical development is permanently altered. Children are more likely to get sick and die because their immune systems are too weak to fend off disease. The kids who survive often can’t focus at school and end up earning less as adults.
As global disasters rise, more and more kids are facing this risk.
Like 13-year-old Kanchan, whose village in Laos has been devastated by floods. The latest bout destroyed her family’s paddy and cassava crops, pushing them into hunger.
“I’m worried about our future,” Kanchan says. To get by, her grandmother ventures out to catch fish and harvest bamboo – but they can’t live this way forever.
No child deserves to grow up like this, John. If you agree, speak up today. [[link removed]]
Take Action [[link removed]]
When the U.S. invests in building a better world for children, other countries follow suit.
That’s why some members of Congress wrote a powerful, bipartisan letter to the Biden-Harris Administration, demanding a stronger stance against malnutrition.
We need more lawmakers to sign this letter ahead of next week’s U.N. General Assembly, where world leaders will meet to discuss critical global challenges.
Please, urge Congress to step up so every child, everywhere, has a chance to reach their potential. [[link removed]]
Thanks for being a voice for kids,
