Every day, millions of
children and families face hunger so severe that
their very survival is uncertain. Yet, as the
global hunger crisis grows, aid from the world's
wealthiest nations is actually shrinking,
leaving 117 million people without critical humanitarian
support in
2025.
Germany
has reduced its humanitarian aid by $500 million, and
the U.S. may follow soon as well,
despite being the largest contributor. The incoming
Trump administration has indicated it
will consider foreign humanitarian aid as a possible
source of "waste."
The
United Nations has already slashed rations in places
like Syria, where families are told, "We're taking from
the hungry to feed the starving." Meanwhile, major
economies like China and
India, whose wealth rivals global
leaders, contribute less than 1% of the UN's
humanitarian aid budget.
Countries
capable of hosting the Olympics and landing on the
moon cannot ignore the cries of starving
children. No child should go hungry in a world of
abundance. This is not just a funding issue —
it's a moral failure.
This injustice
costs lives. In 59 countries, nearly 282 million
people already face severe food insecurity.
Without immediate action, children will die,
families will starve, and futures will be
stolen by preventable
famine.

that wealthy nations immediately restore and expand
humanitarian aid budgets!
