Hunger is a silent crisis affecting millions in Nigeria. While many of us worry about what to eat next, countless families struggle to find even a single meal a day. FoodBank Naija is on a mission to change that—but we cannot do it alone.
The Stark Reality of Hunger in Nigeria
According to recent reports:
-
Over 133 million Nigerians live in multidimensional poverty (NBS).
-
1 in 3 children under five suffers from malnutrition (UNICEF).
-
Food inflation has made basic staples unaffordable for many families.
Behind these statistics are real people—mothers skipping meals to feed their children, students struggling to concentrate in school on empty stomachs, and elderly individuals with no means to sustain themselves.
How FoodBank Naija is Making a Difference
At FoodBank Naija, we don’t just distribute food—we restore dignity, hope, and opportunity. Our initiatives focus on:
✅ Emergency Food Relief – Providing nutritious meals to starving families.
✅ Child & Girl Support – Ensuring vulnerable children, especially girls, have access to food and education.
✅ Community Empowerment – Teaching sustainable farming and skills to break the cycle of poverty.
✅ Health & Nutrition – Fighting malnutrition with fortified food programs.
