Generation Zero-Hunger

Together we can be the generation that ends hunger.

The world produces more than enough food to feed every person, yet the number of people who are hungry has grown since 2019. More than 2 billion people around the world aren’t sure where their next meal will come from, and for as many as 828 million people, that next meal won’t come at all.

Together, we can be the generation that ends hunger. There is another story unfolding around us: the story of God at work through you in ELCA World Hunger around the world. It is a story that has been unfolding for the last 50 years through our church as we worked together to create sustainable, lasting change. It is a story of new homes being built, of new fields being planted with crops. It is a story of wells bubbling with clean water and of small businesses bursting with opportunity. It is a story of caring for the environment and of healthy communities thriving.

We all have a role to play, just as generations of Lutherans have done before us. Do you believe that hunger has no place in our world? At the 2024 ELCA Youth Gathering, join ELCA World Hunger and commit to being part of the generation taking action to usher in a world without hunger, and futures filled with hope.
