Rise Against Hunger Philippines Celebrates A Decade of Leading the Fight Against Hunger

Rise Against Hunger Philippines Office Staff and Board Members.


Rise Against Hunger Philippines (RAHP) recently celebrated a decade of transformative impact in the fight against hunger, bringing together over 100 partners, donors, and supporters at a special event in Makati City. The milestone event highlighted the strong dedication of RAHP to ending hunger and finding lasting solutions for communities in need across the country.


Since its founding in 2015, RAHP has remained at the forefront of addressing hunger across the Philippines. Through the dedicated efforts of its partners and supporters, RAHP has:

  • Delivered millions of meals to food-insecure communities.

  • Provided critical emergency relief to disaster-affected areas.

  • Empowered communities to build sustainable food security solutions.


As part of the milestone celebration, RAHP announced the launch of the Pabaon Project, an online fundraising initiative to improve nutrition for students in remote primary schools in Ifugao. This initiative reflects RAHP’s continued commitment to addressing the root causes of hunger by enhancing access to nutritious meals, which are important for academic success and community development.


“We are proud to launch the Pabaon Project as part of our broader mission to end hunger, particularly in areas with the highest levels of food insecurity. This initiative will help ensure that no child goes hungry, enabling them to thrive in school and their communities,” said Jomar Fleras, Executive Director of Rise Against Hunger Philippines.



Looking Ahead

Representatives from different organizations recognized as Donors and Impact Partners proudly receive their awards.

As the organization enters its second decade, RAHP is focused on expanding its impact, strengthening partnerships, and continuing to lead the fight against hunger in the Philippines. The organization’s decade-long leadership, expertise, and commitment have solidified its role as a key force in the movement to end hunger.


To amplify its efforts, RAHP has invited actor and humanitarian Piolo Pascual to serve as its campaign ambassador. Through his platform, Pascual aims to inspire more Filipinos to take part in the movement towards a hunger-free Philippines.


“Our work is far from over, and with the continued support of our partners and the Filipino people, we are confident that we can make a lasting impact in the fight against hunger. Together, we can build a future where no child goes to bed hungry, and every community thrives,” Fleras added.
