Feed Our World

Fight Hunger, Spread Hope.

Hunger is a silent killer, robbing millions of their right to survive. Tonight, over 757 million people will go to bed hungry, many forced to choose between food to eat, water to drink, or a place to sleep. That’s 1 in 11 people on our planet who have too little food for their basic nutritional needs - Subhan’Allah!

At Penny Appeal, we refuse to allow this cycle of malnutrition to continue. We believe that every one of our brothers and sisters across the globe deserves access to food. That’s why we’re on a mission to Feed Our World – and you’re invited to help us.

With your support, over 16 incredible years, we’ve delivered millions of nutritious meals across the world’s most vulnerable communities.

As we enjoy the blessings on our table every evening, our gratitude to Allah (سُبْحَانَهُۥ وَتَعَالَىٰ) must go beyond words, it is our duty to ensure that all His creations are fed too.

As stated in Surah Al-Insan [76:8-9],

“The righteous are those who give food, motivated solely by their love for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَى), to the poor, the orphan, and the captive, seeking His pleasure alone without expectation of reward or thanks.”

Ramadan 2026: A month of mercy, reflection and powerful giving

Ramadan is a blessed month that brings hearts back to what matters most – faith, gratitude and caring for others. It is a time when Muslims come together in worship, reflection and generosity, seeking closeness to Allah and striving to uplift those facing hardship.

Across the globe, millions of vulnerable families face hunger, poverty and crisis - and during Ramadan, the need for support grows even greater. Your donation can help provide life-saving food, clean water, emergency aid, and long-term support to those who need it most, helping them observe the holy month with dignity and hope.

This Ramadan, let your compassion reach further with Penny Appeal. Give generously, multiply your reward and help families around the world experience the mercy and spirit of this sacred month.

    What food do you provide?

    The food we provide in each country is carefully selected by our teams on the ground to meet cultural or traditional norms, customs and preferences and ensure it is fresh, seasonal and locally produced. We pride ourselves on providing quality, nutritious meals. 

    Do you provide meals or food packs? 

    Both! We either prepare meals and host mass feedings or distribute food packs, depending on the requirements of the people we are helping and the situation on the ground.

    When is food distributed?

    Feed Our World is a year-round campaign, with extra feedings or food distributions taking place at key religious times and in response to emergency situations. 

    Do you work with other organisations?

    Feed Our World is a flagship Penny Appeal project and we lead every aspect of its organisation and delivery. But we know that by working together with other leading charities and organisations we can do even more to help the poor and needy around the world. This is why we have several partners in the UK and overseas who we co-ordinate with on Feed Our World. Uniting with leading charities is a key aim and allows us to benefit from economies of scale, provide aid in harder-to-reach areas, and help even more people.  

    Zakat Donations

    Every non-Zakat donation you give to this appeal is allocated between delivering life-changing programmes for beneficiaries in the field and covering the essential administration, fundraising and charity overheads that enable our work. This balanced approach ensures your generosity creates real impact while upholding the strong governance, safeguarding and accountability standards expected of us as a UK registered charity.
