About World Food Program (WFP) Organization:
The World Food Program (WFP) is the top humanitarian organization that saves and transforms lives, provides food aid in times of need, and works with local communities to improve nutrition and foster resilience.
Over 40 million people in Afghanistan are now experiencing severe food insecurity, which is the biggest amount the humanitarian world has ever seen there. The hunger crisis there is spreading quickly. With the majority of households reporting only one day of work each week, employment prospects are dwindling. This is especially worrying for the 85% of the population that depends on agriculture for a living as it comes on top of the worst drought in years.
