About
Welthungerhilfe (WHH) is one of the largest private aid agencies in Germany; politically and religiously independent. The organization fights for #ZeroHunger. Since being founded in 1962, it has provided funding of EUR 5.42 billion for more than 12,777 overseas projects about 72 countries. In 2024 alone, WHH supported about 18.7 million people with its 649 overseas projects in 37 countries. In real terms, that means: Many people now harvest more and can therefore improve their diets. They now have clean drinking water or toilets at home, which leaves them less susceptible to illness. Others are earning or producing more and can begin an education. For the children, WHH's support means a chance of improved physical and mental development.
