WORLD WORLDWIDE INTERNATIONAL - care2PETITIONS - Wealthy nations are letting children go hungry

 

Countries capable of hosting the Olympics and landing on the moon should feed children.

117 Million Lives, Including Children's, in the Balance. Demand Global Action to Fight Hunger!

Dear friends, 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. Sign the petition to demand that wealthy nations immediately restore and expand humanitarian aid budgets!

Thank you, Celeste Care2 Petitions Team
