With hunger continuing to rise in Africa, we're focused on making a bigger impact than ever before. One of our key focuses this year is securing a steady flow of resources by increasing our meal revenue generation. We plan to do this by strengthening our partnerships and boosting our revenue efforts, hoping to provide immediate food relief while ensuring our work grows and sustains itself for the long term. This is just the start, and we're excited to share more of our strategy as the year unfolds. Stay tuned for updates on how we're working to create lasting change!

The need for disaster response is growing on a global scale. At Rise Against Hunger Africa, we’re preparing for a significant increase in requests due to factors such as droughts, flooding, and the displacement of communities caused by both natural and human-made events. As these challenges continue to escalate, we’re focused on strengthening our capacity to respond quickly and effectively. Our priority this year is to provide immediate relief and support to affected communities, helping them recover and rebuild in the face of adversity. We’re ready to meet these challenges and continue making a positive impact where it’s needed most.

Most of us have returned to work by now, and the Rise Against Hunger Africa team is ready to hit the ground running! After a wonderful break, we're back and energised for 2025. There are a lot of opportunities ahead, and we're excited to start sharing more in the coming weeks. Here's to another year of progress, partnership, and creating a hunger-free future. Let's get to it!

Happy New Year from all of us at Rise Against Hunger Africa! 🎉 In 2025, we're ready to continue improving food security and empowering communities across Africa. There's still work to do, but we're here to carry on with our mission and break new ground. Thank you for your loyal support. Here's to a new year filled with hope, impact, and the ongoing fight for a hunger-free world.

As the year wraps up, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who has supported us this year. Your dedication and generosity have made an incredible impact in the fight against hunger, and together, we're taking significant strides toward building food security in Africa. We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a joyous holiday season. May it be filled with peace, gratitude, and hope for the year ahead. Thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to even more opportunities in 2025! 🙌❤️

Our work wouldn't be possible without the continued support of our donors and partners. We want to express our immense gratitude to CAF America. A partner who fuels our mission to address hunger and malnutrition in Africa with renewed hope. Through this partnership, we're able to support communities with sustainable food solutions, helping build resilience and creating long-term results. Every meal distributed and every life supported brings us closer to a hunger-free world. We're incredibly grateful for CAF America's belief in our mission. Thank you, CAF America, for your continued support in amplifying our impact. Together, we're creating change that will last for generations.

76 amazing volunteers. 23,500 meals packed. 🙌 Our last Open Saturday of the year was a remarkable success. A huge thank you to our amazing volunteers and donors - your support has made a special difference this festive season. We can't wait to continue this momentum into 2025 and beyond!

We love a full-circle moment! Earlier this year, a group of United Airlines staff joined us for a Donor Impact Trip, where we visited some of the Early Childhood Development (ECD) centres we support. Inspired by what they saw, the team returned to the U.S. and raised funds to help the ECDs. Thanks to their incredible generosity, Place of Hope in Orange Farm now has a brand-new kitchen! But that’s not all - last month, another United Airlines group visited, and we had the privilege of officially inaugurating the new kitchen with them. Moments like these don’t happen often, so they’re extra special when they do. A massive thank you to the United Airlines team and all the donors who made this possible. You inspire us to continue moving forward, impacting lives, and making the world a better place. Orange Farm faces increasing challenges with food security, and this is just one more step towards turning that around. ❤️🙌
