Questions about donating to food and hunger relief

How can I donate food to Africa?

The fastest way to help is a money donation rather than shipping food: our partners buy food locally or give cash and vouchers where markets work, which is quicker and supports local farmers. Choose a cause, enter your amount in US dollars and pay securely by Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay or cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and 100+ coins). You get an email receipt straight away and a field report every quarter.

How quickly does emergency food aid reach families?

We aim to distribute food within two weeks of funding, and every distribution is registered and checked.

Do you help prevent future famine?

Yes. The Drought resilience cause helps farmers grow food through the dry season with water pans and drought-tolerant crops.
