Raising Hunger Awareness

From Feeding America:

With one in eight Americans not getting enough to eat, hunger is a serious issue in our country.

On Wednesday, April 29, First Lady Michelle Obama, Dr. Jill Biden, and the spouses of 150 Members of Congress helped raise hunger awareness by spending the day packing lunches for hungry children at the Capital Area Food Bank.

This is a critical time to spread the word about hunger in America. Both American families and the food banks that help them are struggling with the economic downturn. In this tough time, Feeding America is working with those committed to ending hunger--like Mrs. Obama--to help those who are in need.

Feeding America greatly appreciates the First Lady's ongoing commitment to fighting hunger, and the President's commitment to ending childhood hunger by 2015. Will you join President and Mrs. Obama in this fight? To become a Feeding America Hunger Advocate, please visit our Hunger Action Center today!

Ending hunger, regardless of where it is found, is a worthy cause. Prayerfully consider partnering with an organization like Feeding America in this endeavor.
