World Hunger Relief: Your contribution matters.

KFC’s parent company, YUM is committed to assisting the millions of people starving around the world.

From 3 September – 3 October 2011, YUM continues their UN World Food Programme partnership with the launch of their fifth consecutive World Hunger Relief (WHR) campaign.

Thanks to your generosity, Australia has raised over $3 million for the World Food Programme to date. Internationally, YUM has raised over US$85 million and provided more than 350 million meals to those in urgent need of food assistance.

What's our WHR target this year? Here in Australia, we're aiming to raise $1 million for the World Food Programme.

To achieve our goal, we need your help!

Show your support by making a donation at your local KFC store or purchase a torch keyring, wristband or a pen to help fight world hunger.

Thanks in advance for helping us fight the battle against hunger.
