The Ashesi Student Council, through its Outreach Committee, has joined the fight against hunger on behalf of the entire Ashesi student body. “10.9 million children under five die in developing countries each year. Malnutrition and hunger-related diseases cause 60 percent of the deaths.” (Source: The State of the World’s Children, UNICEF, 2007)

Objectives of the Campaign:

1. Raise funds to support the fight against hunger. Funds raised will be donated to organizations working to end hunger such as The World Food Programme.
2. Create awareness of the hunger problem and efforts to deal with it.
3. Inspire people to want to do something about ending hunger. It is our hope that through our example and activities, many more student bodies and organizations will join the fight against hunger.
