Hunger among Americans is real. 48 million people in the United States, including 14 million children, experienced hunger and food insecurity in 2024 (USDA).

With a vision to make America hunger free, the Humanity First USA Food Security program reduces hunger, provides food to our communities, and raises awareness. We serve over 46,000 people each year with staple and nutritious food.

Fast2Feed takes place each year during the month of Ramadan. By fasting for over 12 hours a day, all Muslims get a small taste of hunger and the pain endured by people with little or no food to eat. But unlike many who go on to enjoy their favorite foods after breaking their fast in the evening, millions do not have the luxury of even one full meal a day.

The Fast2Feed drive urges everyone to donate at least the value of one meal while you fast to fill a hungry stomach. People from any faith tradition can skip a meal and donate that small amount to feed children, parents, and elders who are suffering because of food insecurity in America.

This campaign supports not only Humanity First USA’s 8 food pantries across the USA but also our global food distribution efforts.
