Growing the Movement
Nourishing lives
While communities work toward a future in which they can thrive, vulnerable families and individuals around the globe still have basic, immediate needs. That’s why Rise Against Hunger India supports safety net programs that provide nourishment, as well as additional skills training or services that support the difficult journey out of poverty.
Empowering Communities
Rise Against Hunger India aims to increase agricultural production and incomes through programs promoting improved agricultural methods, business skills, and market access. We work with smallholder farmers to build resilience to the shocks and stresses of climate change by promoting ecological approaches to agriculture as well as diversification. Our recent SAMBAL Initiative aims to support rural households in hunger pockets in the country through farm and non-farm interventions.
Responding to Emergencies
Rise Against Hunger India responds to sudden and ongoing crises to meet immediate needs of affected populations and support the transition toward recovery. We have responded to emergencies by delivering food, nutrition, water filters and hygiene kits to those displaced by natural disasters and man-made crises.
Growing the Movement
Regardless of your location, age, schedule or resources, we believe anyone from anywhere can take action and make a positive difference in the fight against hunger. Even seemingly small contributions can add up to a BIG impact. No single agency or government can end hunger alone, and it will take everyone to make this a movement.

Our Testimonial
Rise Against Hunger India would not be able to accomplish its Nourishing Lives, Emergency Relief or Empowering Communities efforts without the support of our volunteers. Hunger elimination needs to become a movement, and everyone can play a role in creating a hunger-free world. We invite you to join our movement and be a hunger champion.
