In the remote highlands of Peru, hunger does not always shout. Sometimes it walks quietly—step by step—across mountains and dirt paths.

In remote rural communities, malnutrition, anemia, and neglect are daily challenges. Children go days without fresh fruit.

Today’s businesses are expected to be socially responsible. Consumers prefer brands that give back and create real impact.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But a video, filmed in the heart of a forgotten community, is worth far more—it’s worth a life.

In a world where millions of tons of food are wasted daily, the statistics are clear: hunger is not about scarcity—it’s about distribution.

In one of our partner communities, we met María, a devoted mother who struggled to feed her children.

The contrast is shocking: tons of edible food are discarded every day while children, mothers, and elderly in underserved communities survive on just one meal a day — or none at all.

Every day, in forgotten corners of Peru, hunger strikes hard. In Indigenous, rural, and marginalized urban communities, many families wake up not knowing if they’ll have a meal that day.

At Agape Hand, we know that the true driving force behind our impact is the people who make up this mission.

Food insecurity remains one of the most urgent challenges of our time, affecting over 735 million people worldwide, according to the FAO.
