RAH Meals Shipped! – Our Rise Against Hunger meals have been shipped! They are on the way to Madagascar, an island nation off the southeastern coast of Africa. Madagascar is home to over 28 million people, and faces high rates of poverty, food insecurity and chronic malnutrition. Especially in the southern part of the country, low access to education, water scarcity and frequent natural disasters cause severe food insecurity. Our efforts will help address some of the food security challenges that children, families, and communities in Madagascar face. Thank you again to everyone who helped out!
