Thank you for joining us on this mission to end all forms of human poverty. Whether you’re a child sponsor, a supporter lifting FH up in prayer, or a first time donor: thank you!

You are transforming the lives of the most vulnerable around the world. Together, we are responding to God’s call to end all forms of human poverty — physical, spiritual, and emotional. Because of your partnership, Food for the Hungry is helping communities access resources like clean water, educational opportunities, agriculture training, and so much more!

Transformation with the gift of clean water.

10 year-old Sarah, living in the central zone of the Dominican Republic, and her mother, Blasina, are far too familiar with being sick. Sarah was constantly ill from drinking the tap water. The contaminated tap water affected the health of many children and adults in the community. When the FH team met with leaders in Sarah’s community, they identified that the children and families of the community really needed a low-cost option for purified water. Through your support, FH and the community began construction and installed a community water purification system. Now Sarah and other children in the community are healthier because they can drink clean water.

Thank you for your faithfulness to the most vulnerable.

You are helping families and children, like Sarah, overcome poverty and live out their God-given potential. You are walking alongside vulnerable communities to help them find sustainable solutions so that the people we serve will no longer suffer in extreme poverty. Thank you for joining us in this work. We are ending poverty, together.

You may send small, flat paper-based items that can fit into a standard #10 size envelope, have a value of less than $5 dollars and weigh less than 4 ounces. We ask that you send small, flat items of this size because shipping is expensive and even small gift items can cause issues clearing customs.
You can send postcards or photographs, however, we ask that you visit here for more details about culturally appropriate guidelines for photos and other images. Please write the child’s ID # on the back of each item that you enclose with your letter to ensure that it reaches him/her.
