WHO WE ARE
Founded in 1971, FH Association (&ldquo;FHA&rdquo;) incorporated in Geneva, Switzerland, operates programs in over 18 countries throughout Africa, Latin America, and Asia. Food for the Hungry (FH) was founded by Dr. Larry Ward based on a simple premise, &ldquo;If children died one at a time, I can help them one at a time.&rdquo;&nbsp;Currently FH operates in more than 20 countries in North America, Latin America, Africa and Asia.
While we collectively refer to ourselves as &ldquo;FH&rdquo;, international staff should be aware that there are additional &ldquo;Food for the Hungry&rdquo; organizations in other countries that also trace their lineage back to the same founder, Larry Ward, in 1971. They collectively call themselves &ldquo;Food for the Hungry International&rdquo; or &ldquo;FHI&rdquo;. FHA and FHI cooperate on projects together but may not share common governance.
