Hunger Relief
NAMB's Hunger Relief Ministry assists churches, associations, and state conventions, so that in the process of distributing food, the gospel can be shared with people in need. By meeting someone’s physical needs, opportunities are created to address their spiritual needs.
Domestic Hunger Fund - Feeding the Hungry in North America
NAMB administers the Domestic Hunger Fund program. It is important to remember that every dollar is used exclusively to feed the hungry. Hunger funds cannot be used to cover any administrative costs. Monies are distributed quarterly to hunger ministries throughout North America. In 2011, more than $1.1 million was provided to 1,100 hunger ministries. Also, 5.2 million meals were provided with Domestic Hunger Funds and over 30,000 professions of faith were reported through hunger ministries in North America. A total of 233 new ministries or churches were started in 2011 as a result of hunger relief.
These ministries have been accomplished in large measure thanks to the prayers and financial giving of many thousands of persons to the Hunger Fund.
