About Rise Against Hunger India

Rise Against Hunger India envisions a world without hunger, aiming to nourish lives, empower communities, respond to emergencies, and build a movement of hunger action champions. Initially, programs were concentrated in urban locations where NGO partners running schools, orphanages, and other programs received nutritious meals packaged by thousands of corporate employees and volunteers. Recently, programs have been expanded to rural areas with high malnutrition and food insecurity scores in 4 States (Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Bihar, and Jharkhand) to address immediate, underlying, and basic causes of hunger, malnutrition, and food insecurity. A flagship initiative includes a comprehensive maternal and child nutrition project under the First Thousand Days Program being implemented in nearly 60 locations across four States.
