Working Together to Fight Hunger
Amigos Internacionales • March 9, 2019
When you’re satisfied and have everything you need, it’s easy to forget the fact that other people struggle to get just what is enough for them, but there’s a great inequality in our world.
Other people in other places, especially in developing countries struggle with many problems. These include a lack of basic things such as food, education, medicine, clean water, clothing, housing, and many other things.
Children from the village watch as the drilling rig drills for fresh, clean, disease free water!
By coming together we can make a difference and bring relief to these people. We are sponsoring orphan children in Uganda, digging wells for clean water, and doing all we can to help reduce the problem with hunger in rural Uganda and Guatemala.
Here at Amigos, we are currently rallying the world for support and aid to people in some of the world’s most affected communities. There are many children facing staggering challenges in most parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, some parts of Asia, Latin America, and many other places.
Hunger is a complex issue
No one can thrive on an empty stomach.
This monster problem is a complex one. It respects no place, no, and touches many communities in the world. Along with adults, many children and infants go for days in Africa, Asia, Latin America, malnourished, and on many day are having to live on empty stomachs.
When you consider that this will greatly stunt their growth and development, affect their cognitive ability, and their physical and mental health as well, then you’ll understand how big of a problem this can actually be.
Working Together to Fight Hunger
But we can do our best to save the world from hunger.
With God by our side, and with the support of caring hearts, we can make a difference and put a smile on the faces of hungry people around the world. And because we can only take one step at a time, we are starting from Uganda and Guatemala, two of the worst affected areas around the world.
Amigos has always been about making the world a better place that works for people, even those who may have been put at a disadvantage due to political and economic reasons.
Since 1967, we have made it our objective to ensure the provision of basic human needs for people in global disasters and crisis situations. We have come a long way since then.

Amigos have served different people groups in 21 different countries around the world.
Our mission to end the world’s hunger problem has seen us feeding about 21,000 children each day in orphanages around the world. On an average, we provide about 7,500,000 million meals every year for people in need.
We are looking to God and His people to help us do more. With your help and support, we’ll be able to extend our reach and break new grounds.

Every penny that goes into our donation ends up helping a real person facing a big challenge. So you know that your kind gesture will go a long way to make the world a better place. You can find us at

Thank you for your help!

Access to quality Medical Care is a fundamental human right. However, millions of people around the world, especially in rural regions and developing countries, lack this access. In northern Uganda, the situation is particularly challenging due to a combination of factors such as poverty, armed conflict, population displacement, and lack of infrastructure. Amigos Internationa l, aware of this problem, has undertaken a series of initiatives to improve the health of communities in northern Uganda. Through the construction of health centres, the training of health personnel and the implementation of disease prevention programmes, the organisation is transforming the lives of thousands of people.
In the heart of Northern Uganda lies Ogul Village, a community facing significant healthcare challenges. From March 28th to 30th, a transformative event will unfold: the Ogul Village Medical Camp, a collaborative effort by Doctors on Mission International and Amigos Internacionales. This three-day initiative brings quality healthcare and hope to over 3,000 individuals.
In Uganda, countless communities remain deprived of clean water, a fundamental human right. Amigos International is actively addressing this crisis by constructing deep wells, implementing rainwater harvesting systems, and promoting essential hygiene practices. These initiatives are not merely beneficial; they are transforming lives and reshaping the future of entire communities.
In Northern Uganda, Ogul Village faces severe healthcare shortages. From March 28th to 30th, the Ogul Village Medical Camp will provide essential medical services to over 3,000 residents. This initiative, led by Doctors on Mission International and Amigos Internacionales, aims to deliver critical healthcare and instill hope in the community.
In Northern Uganda, children are dying from treatable diseases due to a lack of local medical facilities. Establishing clinics at MissionPoints is essential to provide life-saving care and prevent unnecessary deaths.

Water is essential for life, yet millions in developing countries lack access to clean and safe drinking water. This blog explores the significance of water projects in transforming lives, the challenges faced in implementing these projects, and the profound impact that access to water has on communities. The Importance of Clean Water Access Clean water is fundamental for health, sanitation, and economic stability. This section will discuss the direct benefits of clean water access and its crucial role in reducing disease and improving quality of life. Access to clean water significantly reduces the prevalence of waterborne diseases, which disproportionately affect vulnerable populations. When communities can rely on safe drinking water, children are less likely to suffer from illnesses such as cholera and dysentery, which can be fatal. Improved health translates into better school attendance and productivity in work, fostering a cycle of positive growth. Moreover, water projects empower women and girls, who often bear the burden of water collection. By alleviating this responsibility with localized water sources, women can engage in education and employment opportunities, thus breaking the cycle of poverty and promoting gender equality. The transformation is not solely physical; it systematically uplifts entire communities. In essence, investing in clean water access is investing in human potential. When basic human needs are met, it provides a foundation for dignity, resilience, and the pursuit of a better future. Communities thrive, economies grow, and the social fabric becomes more robust—all of which hinge on the most fundamental element of life: water.

Education advocacy plays a crucial role in shaping the future leaders of our society. By promoting equitable opportunities and fostering a supportive learning environment, we can empower the next generation to succeed. In this blog, we will explore the importance of education advocacy, the challenges faced by students today, and how we can work together to create positive change. Understanding Education Advocacy Education advocacy encompasses efforts to promote policies and practices that enhance learning opportunities for all students. It involves raising awareness about educational issues and advocating for necessary changes. This advocacy can take many forms, ranging from ensuring funding for resources to addressing systemic inequities in our education system. At its core, education advocacy is about amplifying the voices of those who are often unheard. This includes students, parents, and teachers who face barriers in accessing quality education. When we engage in advocacy, we provide a platform for diverse perspectives, helping to identify the real challenges that impact learning experiences. Moreover, understanding the role of education advocacy is essential for those looking to make a meaningful difference. By delving into the history of educational reforms and the current landscape, advocates can better strategize their efforts. The journey begins with informed individuals who are passionate about improving educational systems.
In Northern Uganda, diseases like malaria claim the lives of innocent children far too often. These deaths are not the result of complex diseases, but rather the absence of basic healthcare services. The story of Grace, a second-grade teacher, and her daughter, Miriam, paints a devastating picture of the urgent need for medical clinics in this region. A Tragic, Preventable Loss Grace, like many parents in Northern Uganda, works tirelessly to provide for her family and serve her community. As a teacher, she has dedicated her life to helping children grow and learn. But when her own daughter, Miriam, fell ill with malaria, Grace found herself helpless. The nearest clinic was miles away, and even if they could have reached it, there was no guarantee that they would have access to the necessary medicine—a simple malaria pill. Miriam’s condition worsened, and Grace watched, powerless, as her young daughter’s life slipped away. A single dose of medication could have saved Miriam, but without a local medical facility or access to basic pharmaceuticals, her life was lost. She was just six years old. Grace’s story is not an exception—it is the heartbreaking reality faced by countless families across Northern Uganda. Malaria, pneumonia, diarrhea, and other treatable illnesses continue to take lives simply because there are no clinics to provide the care these communities desperately need.
