The  AGCO Agriculture Foundation (AAF), is a private foundation with the vision to prevent and relieve hunger through sustainable agricultural development, around the world. This week, they announced a $100,000 donation to the World Food Program USA (WFPUSA). The donation will support the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) emergency relief efforts to provide food assistance for families affected by the conflict inside Ukraine and neighboring countries.

The crisis in Ukraine is uprooting families, communities, farmers, and economies, and have sent Ukrainians to find refuge in neighboring countries. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Ukraine during this time of crisis.

“Watching the destruction of lives and lands due to the crisis in Ukraine is deeply troubling,” said Roger N. Batkin, Board Chair, AGCO Agriculture Foundation. “Sustainably feeding the world is core to our purpose, and we are immediately concerned about the food security of the people caught in the Ukraine crisis. Through our community development and humanitarian focus, we are mobilizing an immediate donation to the U.N. World Food Programme’s emergency operation to provide food assistance to affected families in Ukraine and its borders.”
