Food Insecurity in Black Communities

In the U.S., Black households experience food insecurity at three times the rate of white households. Globally, more than one-third of people living with hunger live in Africa.

How Bread Advocates

Bread has been a long-time advocate for Black freedom from hunger. We advocate for programs that address racial equity, economic instability and food insecurity in Black communities in the U.S., Africa and other areas of the world.

An Invitation to Advocate Together

Black voices have been and are actively present and resilient. Bread invites more Black voices and their partners to speak up for hunger and make effective, equitable programs a reality for Black communities.
