Hunger at Home

 
 


Your gift to ELCA World Hunger Appeal—hunger at home helps neighbors close to home who struggle with hunger and poverty. These gifts help fund innovative and faithful relief, development, and organizing efforts such as:

  • Food for Seniors (Houston, Texas) delivers groceries each month to low-income seniors aged 60 and over. In addition to supplying nutritious food, Food for Seniors provides nutritional and supportive services to improve overall health of at-risk seniors.

  • Youth Empowerment Program (Columbus, Ohio) works throughout the state of Ohio to empower disadvantaged youth to create social justice in the world. Youth in the program work together to advocate for change in issues surrounding hunger, poverty, and homelessness in America.

  • FISH (Great Falls, Mont.) provides support for local families dealing with emergency situations. In addition to providing three meals a day, FISH supplies families in crisis with groceries and toiletries they need to get back on their feet.
