"The outrage of hunger amidst plenty will not be solved by 'experts' somewhere. It will only be solved when people like you and me decide to act." ~ Frances Moore Lappe

 

September is Hunger Action Month

Hunger Action Month is an opportunity to engage in the fight against domestic hunger. America's Second Harvest (soon to be Feeding America) and its 205 member food banks will host events across the United States that directly benefit our hunger-relief efforts.

Hunger affects people of all ages, and in all areas of the world. One way to address this unfortunate situation is to educate yourself about hunger issues.

Along with food and financial support, it is important that you arm yourself with facts in order to show your support to your elected officials, because in a land of plenty, no one should go hungry.
