No Family Should
Go to Bed Hungry

From cash transfers to IDP camps to agricultural support for smallholder farmers — Inara Foundation works every day to ensure that conflict-displaced families in the Northeast have food on their tables.

The Crisis

Conflict Doesn't Just Destroy Homes — It Destroys Food Systems

The Boko Haram insurgency forced millions of people off their farmlands in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe States — the breadbasket of Nigeria's Northeast. Families who had farmed for generations found themselves in displacement camps with nothing.

Inara Foundation's Food Security and Livelihood program responds to this crisis with structured, dignified support — emergency food distributions, cash transfers, and long-term agricultural recovery programs that rebuild the livelihoods of families, not just their pantries.

Food Security
What We Do

Three Ways We Fight Hunger

In-Kind Food Distribution

Direct distribution of food packages — including grains, beans, cooking oil, and staples — to IDPs in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe States. Each distribution is targeted, documented, and dignified.

Cash Transfer Programme

Direct cash transfers to the most vulnerable IDP households — giving families the freedom and dignity to meet their own nutritional and livelihood needs without the limitations of in-kind aid.

Agricultural Recovery Support

Input support, seeds, tools, and training to help displaced farmers return to productive land — rebuilding the agricultural livelihoods that the insurgency destroyed, and restoring long-term food security.
