Since 2013, The Kraft Heinz Company Foundation has been a vital partner in Rise Against Hunger’s mission to end global hunger — and today, we’re excited to announce an extended three-year partnership with the company. Kraft Heinz is committing $15 million, which will be dispersed over the next three years, to alleviate food and nutrition insecurity for communities around the world. Just as Rise Against Hunger is driven by the vision of a world without hunger, Kraft Heinz is also committed to alleviating global hunger, with a goal to provide 1.5 billion meals to people in need by 2025. Kraft Heinz’s continued partnership with Rise Against Hunger will be equivalent to 463 million meals for 13.5 million people, advancing the company’s goal and making a huge impact in supporting this critical issue! The Kraft Heinz Company Foundation’s new partnership investment will support our work in many ways. Notable highlights include:
- Fully funding 36 million micronutrient sachets in 207 million Rise Against Hunger meals.
- Local and regional procurement of 5.5 million meals in remote, last-mile communities.
- Support of sustainable agriculture projects with the equivalent of 250 million meals.
- Engaging thousands of Kraft Heinz employees in volunteer events and opportunities worldwide each year.
