how bgr operates
BGR operates by raising funds for food relief and related projects from both private donors and philanthropic organizations. It works in partnership with agencies, institutions, and relief organizations already operating on the ground to provide food relief to victims of natural disaster, violent conflict, and drought. In countries stricken by long-term poverty and under-development, it supports projects aimed at developing better long-term methods of food production and management to ensure its beneficiaries a constant supply of food.
