"The World Food Programme is the world's largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. [They published the games Food Force and FreeRice.com.] Born in 1962, WFP pursues a vision of the world in which every man, woman and child has access at all times to the food needed for an active and healthy life. In emergencies, we get food to where it is needed, saving the lives of victims of war, civil conflict and natural disasters. After the cause of an emergency has passed, we use food to help communities rebuild their shattered lives."
