OUTREACH Mission

Through God’s provision, our previous property was sold, and we secured a new headquarters in Greensboro, NC, positioning us for greater impact.

This bold step of faith came with a $4.5 million funding need, and through the generosity of our supporters, 25 percent was raised in the inception year of 2023 and an additional 25 percent in 2024.

We invite you to partner with us in this journey through prayer and financial support. Help us expand the outreach and impact even more lives for Christ!

Following God

After 55 years in the Burlington, North Carolina, area, Feed the Hunger has relocated its headquarters 25 miles west to Greensboro to expand the ministry’s outreach. What started as a mission trip to Mexico led by Dr. J.L. and Patt Williams in 1968 quickly morphed into an interracial singing group and later to a cross-cultural ministry, which continues today. While outreach methods have changed over the years, the mission has remained the same. For over five decades, the lives of the suffering and most vulnerable around the world have been transformed, receiving hope for a brighter future through the faithfulness of God and the dedication of Feed the Hunger’s partners and supporters.

TRANSFORMING Hearts & Minds

Rescuing Girls in Bangladesh

Our food packets give us access to communities where we otherwise would not be allowed. While in Bangladesh, our team was invited into the country’s two largest brothels, one housing over 2,000 women and their children. These women live in horrific conditions in alleyway-like slums. Once in the brothel, women are not allowed to leave.

These meals were a lifeline for these women and children during the pandemic and continue to be vital in keeping them alive. What started out as just a meal has led to Bible distributions, schools being built in the brothels, and young girls rescued from the brothels by our partner and given hope for a different future! We are thankful for your interest in supporting our mission to feed more at-risk children across the globe!

Changing Hearts through God’s Word

“Thank you for the Bible. As a Muslim, I have been reading it secretly. It teaches me about life, keeps me up in whatever I do, and helps me not give up on God. The Bible can lead one to heaven, and I am very lucky to have one.” —College student in Ghana

Hygiene Packs in Sri Lanka

“Feed the Hunger’s commitment to providing Hygiene Packs to needy children in Sri Lanka is greatly appreciated. It is a reminder of the importance of personal cleanliness and hand washing, especially for those who live near the beach and are prone to flood-related illnesses. The children now enjoy brushing their teeth and taking care of their personal hygiene with enthusiasm. They also wash their hands with much happiness, which is a good sign that they understand that washing hands will stop the spread of bacteria and sicknesses.”

Providing Food and Education Supplies in Ghana

“Abduali is a Fulani herdsman who lives with his wife, Amina, and four children in southern Ghana. For lack of funds, their children had not been to school for a while. Thankfully, we have provided them Edu-Packs for school needs, including feeding support to keep them in school. Two boxes of Feed the Hunger rice and beans have been given to the family, for which they are grateful.”
