ELCA World Hunger

Nearly 800 million people – that's 1 in 10 people in our world today – are hungry. 
As members of the ELCA, we are called to respond. We are a church that rolls up our sleeves and gets to work. 

Working with and through congregations in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands Lutheran churches overseas and other partners, ELCA World Hunger is uniquely positioned to reach communities in need. From health clinics to microloans, water wells to animal husbandry, community meals to advocacy, your gifts to ELCA World Hunger make it possible for the ELCA to respond, supporting sustainable solutions that get at the root causes of hunger and poverty.

Malaria

The ELCA Malaria Campaign reached its financial goal of raising $15 million. Thank you! Working with our Lutheran companions and partners, malaria programming has taken place throughout 13 countries in Africa. By working together, we have brought about  lasting change.
Although the fundraising campaign has concluded, our commitment to ending deaths from this preventable, treatable disease has not. Support to our companions and partners to address malaria will come through gifts to ELCA World Hunger, which has a long history of supporting health-related work.
