 Hunger in the Time of COVID-19: A Global Perspective

The pandemic has had a profound impact on our communities as rates of hunger and poverty skyrocket around the world. As part of the "Hunger in the Time of COVID-19" series, this panel of experts break down how our global companions are facing the challenge. During this virtual event, recorded Feb. 9, 2021, the panelists explain the unique ways ELCA World Hunger is responding, and you can hear from ELCA World Hunger partners on the front lines of the current hunger crisis, who will tell you firsthand how your gifts make a difference.

We are in a historic moment – a once-in-a-century pandemic, facing a global change in hunger unlike anything we have seen in our lifetimes. Domestically and internationally, hunger is increasing at alarming rates. Working with and through our congregations and other partners, domestically and internationally, ELCA World Hunger is uniquely positioned to reach communities in need. From health clinics to microloans, water wells to animal husbandry, community meals to advocacy, your gifts to ELCA World Hunger make it possible for the ELCA to respond, supporting sustainable solutions that get at the root causes of hunger and poverty.

We are called by God to share hope in this time of challenge. Join us to face this global hunger crisis head-on and to continue to move toward a just world where all are fed. Learn more at ELCA.org/hunger.
