War Zone Ministry: How you bring lifesaving help and hope
If you walked into a village in rural Afghanistan, you’d smell the dust. You’d see children who can only be described as emaciated. You might hear crying.
Or you might be met with silence—because the situation has gotten so bad that some parents are drugging their hungry children . . . so they don’t realize their suffering. So they’re silent instead of screaming.
War brings chaos and destruction that affect nations for years. As infrastructure and crops are ruined—making people weak, malnourished, and easier to conquer—children suffer most. Many are orphaned and powerless. And every day, the most urgent need of all pounds away at them: they are desperately hungry. They literally cannot survive without food. For these children, your compassion makes all the difference.
YouR Care saves lives
Thanks to generous friends like you, and incredible Christian partners on the ground, Feed The Hungry steps into desperate conflict situations around the world. In Ukraine, Afghanistan, South Sudan, Myanmar, and other countries, your support delivers lifesaving food and Gospel hope to the suffering and the starving.
You transform the lives of children like Rebecca.
Rebecca, only 12 years old, is from South Sudan. Her homeland has seen horrific violence for more than a decade. 400,000 have been killed. Countless more lives have been ravaged, especially those of women and children. The innocent have been assaulted, homes burned, villages looted, and even children have been recruited to join the fighting. Rebecca witnessed far too much of this hurt and hunger.
She shares how she saw men with guns.
Dead bodies.
Fires that turned beloved homes into ashes.
And as she fled the chaos with her family and other refugees, she watched illness and exhaustion claim even more lives.
But thanks to you, Rebecca found care, refuge, and strength.
You Took Her From Hurt to Hope
After a hard, hungry journey, Rebecca made it to Uganda, where she lives as a refugee. Now she’s not only surviving but learning to thrive again.
Rebecca eats every day because of you. She hears about Jesus. She’s able to go to school to build a brighter future. She shares:
“We are learning well. We have healthy minds, healthy bodies.”
You helped Rebecca receive nourishment, rest, and the chance to succeed—and you’ve done the same for multitudes more children from conflict zones.
Some of them live in the shadow of the Taliban, some in hard-hit areas of Ukraine. Others are struggling in regions torn apart by cartels, militias trying to recruit child soldiers, and more. These little ones know, body and soul, just how terrible war is.
But they’ve felt God’s love through the meals you give.
You reach the neediest inside conflict zones
Gaining access to the places these children live can be challenging. But over decades of ministry, we’ve built strong systems and an incredible network of local partners. That means we can successfully get the food you give into conflict areas . . . at a cost of just 20 cents per meal.
And the meals aren’t just “drop and go.” They are served with prayers, heartfelt care, and commitment that last for the long haul (often through schools that provide education, too). Every meal you give is a chance to share Jesus—to provide the physical and spiritual nourishment that are desperately needed right now.
In Ukraine, infrastructure attacks have robbed children of nourishment.
In Afghanistan, some hospital malnutrition wards have little ones two to a bed.
Children in multiple conflict zones are suffering and dangerously malnourished.
We cannot stop the wars. But we can feed the children who are victims. We can help them grow strong, learn, and find hope again—instead of being silenced.
We need more food to save more children. Your partnership is crucial. Please, extend your hand of mercy and care to children in conflict zones. Just $10 provides 50 meals. Your gift will save lives and share Jesus!
