Enhanced Private-Public Alignment to Reduce World Hunger
How to Increase Private Sector Participation
Hunger is a Blight on Our Humanity Hunger is morally unjustifiable --
bad for people and communities bad for business bad for peace
Yet --- 852,000,000 people world wide are faced with hunger
Can we agree on the focus of our work?
What is the Focus of Our Work? Is it a problem of supply or access?
Does it require an immediate or long term solution?
Who’s Problem is it Anyway?
The Need for A Coordinated Global Food Banking
Effort Increasing rates of hunger (developed and
developing countries) Growing unacceptable waste of food (post-
harvest crop loss, surplus, other) Hundreds of thousands of independently
operated hunger-fighting agencies / NGOs Too little professionalism in sourcing and
distributing food Too few vetted, community or national global
hunger voices Private and public sector anti-hunger resources
not adequately aligned
Global food surplus – issue is access, not supply World smaller, grocery products companies
growing larger Proven solutions exist People, businesses, foundations and governments
believe and trust private donors and volunteers. Increased willingness to share (GFN’s basis for
existence) Climate for success is better than in many years
The Opportunity for A Coordinated Global Food Banking
Effort
Private Sector Role of Food Banks: A Role Defined by… Need to bring the voice and work of hunger
agencies together to create authority and leverage
Need to create an efficient network of aligned agencies to increase awareness, public policy and the amount of available food
Need to achieve a balance of the commercial food distribution model with the food sourcing model
Need to create self-sufficiency

GFN Founding Members
America’s Second Harvest Canadian Association of Food Banks Mexican Association of Food Bank Argentine Association of Food Bank
Together, these organizations form the largest private hunger fighting network in the world, delivering 2.6 billion pounds of food to assist more than 32 million people annually.
Sourcing food from small farmers
Feeding school children in Ghana
We Can Do Better Today, there are approximately 1,000 food banks
worldwide that distribute more than 3.5 billion pounds annually
Members of GFN: 70% of food banks and 85% of all food
The average food bank assists 40,000 people, providing approximately 75 pounds to each person per year
But we reach less than 50 million of the 852 million hungry people
Clearly we need to expand the reach and create more food banks
