 For fifty years, the Food for Peace program has brought
hope and nourishment to the hungry corners of this
earth. Approximately 3 billion people in 150 countries
have benefited directly from our food.
The secret of Food for Peace’s success lies in the unique
combination of American compassion together with the
unmatched efficiency of our nation’s farmers. This is less
a triumph of government than of working Americans, for
in its essence, Food for Peace is the work of farmers,
businessmen, grain elevator operators, truckers, bargemen,
freight forwarders, port operators, NGOs, PVOs, and
government officials. Together they form an unbroken
chain of humanity stretching from this country’s fertile
fields to hungry families half a world away. In the end,
hope is what America has promised, and hope is what
Food for Peace delivers around the world every day.
