1. Summary
Food for Hungry (FH) is a Christian
international relief, development and advocacy group operating in more than 20
countries. It does it by going to the most difficult places, empowering local
leaders, and "together" with them, leading the community to a place
where it can flourish and stand on its own feet. When Larry Ward founded the
FH, he purchased resources with a personal credit card for children dying of hunger-related
causes. In addition, oral fire continued until the late 1970s, helping refugees
in Bangladesh. Later, they began working in the country without first
responding to humanitarian disasters through a children's sponsorship programs.
They implemented development that focused on changing communities by working
closely with churches, leaders and families. Countries helped by the group
include Bangladesh, Bolivia and Cambodia.
2. Interesting point
When I thought of organizations that help poor
countries, I generally only thought of relief efforts to help hungry people.
But the FH was interesting in itself because it seemed to be the kind of
organization I had never thought of, as an organization that helped the
development of poor countries beyond those activities.
3. Discuission
What
can we do for the development of the vulnerable class in the world?
