The World Hunger Fund was established by a World Conference resolution (GCR 1148) in 1978. It provided for a program to be established to “facilitate opportunities for those interested and motivated to participate in additional ways beyond the fasting discipline and to add these moneys to the support of ministries directed toward the problems of world hunger.”
