PHRESH (Plant-Based Hunger Relief & EcoSolutions Hub) is a joint project of A Well-Fed World, Youth Climate Save, and the Physicians Association for Nutrition (PAN International).
The list below is a directory of intentionally plant‑based hunger relief organizations and programs.
This soft launch highlights organizations we know through A Well-Fed World's Plants-4-Hunger granting program, fiscal sponsorships, and related activities. Most have received funding from us directly, in addition to indirect support. These organizations are putting plant‑based solutions into practice with community kitchens, food tree planting, school meals, seed distribution, climate‑resilient farming, disaster relief, and soy-based microbusinesses.
More detailed profiles and additional partners will be added as the PHRESH campaign expands. We developed this robust list to be an easy reference. We excluded some potential listings if the programs appeared inactive or we were unable to confirm sufficient details, and we added some bonus organizations at the end for consideration.
You may donate to the organizations below through A Well-Fed World or directly using their links. Donations made through us are tax-deductible for U.S. donors. The status of other organizations varies.
