With everything that is happening in the world today one would be an hypocrite if they were to refuse acknowledging how overwhelmed, lonely and unworthy most of us are feeling in today’s society. Mental health is real and we must speak up to create more awareness #WMHD2020

Well deserving recognition. As a person who’d experienced the livelihood in a refugee camp in western Ethiopia for ten years, I can attest to the fact that the WFP fed me for all those 10 years. 🙏 to your daughter and her colleagues for all the sacrifices and to donors, UNHCR

This morning my daughter Lauren & her colleagues at the World Food Programme were awarded the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize. The reality is that the work of the #WFP is complex & dangerous... yet they persevere to get the next meal through. So proud of you Lauren. #NobelPeacePrize

There’s only ONE WEEK left to DONATE! We are rounding out our Heroes For Hungry Kids campaign with our superhero Ryder. Ryder is our hero for nutrition – because it’s one thing to provide a lunch, but it’s an entirely different story to provide a nutritious lunch.
