Last week, a powerful 7.7-magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar. World Food Programme was on the ground within 48 hours, providing lifesaving food to earthquake-affected people. To learn more about WFP's response, please visit: bit.ly/44aMAJ5

STATEMENT: WFP is deeply concerned by recent notifications from the US administration indicating that funding for emergency food assistance in 14 countries has been terminated. 🔵If implemented, this could amount to a death sentence for millions of people facing extreme hunger

To the six women who just reached the stars—thank you for reminding us how connected we truly are. Please see below for my full joint statement—written in partnership with World Food Program USA Board Vice-Chair, Molly Finn—inviting you to join us in the field.

Great meeting with Dept. of Agriculture’s Secretary Brooke Rollins to discuss how U.S.-grown food—from American farmers—can help feed the 343M people facing hunger worldwide. We look forward to our continued partnership.
