BE HUNGRY

Kids just like you are seeing their friends and families die from hunger - 29,000 every day, gone for good. They're counting on you to care. Do you care? I know your own life is busy, but do you have room to care for someone else as well? If so, you should get involved. Be Seen. Be heard. BE HUNGRY!
 

Real and Personal

This was my first time at the Famine, and it was absolutely amazing!! To spend the day, we made baskets of food for the hungry elders in our area. In total, we made 468 meals! I was amazed at our
