World Soy Foundation

The World Soy Foundation (WSF) is a charitable organization dedicated to helping relieve hunger and malnutrition in the world today by funding, supporting and helping to coordinate programs that recognize the importance of the use of soybeans in developing sustainable food solutions. Our core purpose is to reduce malnutrition through the power of soy.

Fund raising is a key role of the WSF, and its current outreach program is touching many of the world’s largest corporations, and in particular, those with knowledge and interests in food and agricultural production and processing. Farmer support has been, and continues to be, strong, as demonstrated by the success of the on going “Acre Challenge” program in which a farmer donates the proceeds from the sale of an acre’s production of soybeans to the Foundation. In addition, many individuals from around the world have already become contributors, with fundraising programs now being developed to expand this effort.

The WSF works collaboratively with other leading non-governmental organizations (NGOs) as well as various governments and their agencies, to leverage key assets and learning’s of all of the involved parties to create efficient and effective programs.

The WSF’s roots lie deep in agriculture, as it was created by the American Soybean Association and its World Initiative for Soy in Human Health (WISHH) program, to act as an independent foundation to help play an expansive role in hunger eradication.
