Hi John, Hunger stunts every aspect of a child’s development – from their health to their long-term potential.
This World Food Day, we’re urging Congress to fund Food for Peace, a program that feeds 40 million people worldwide.
Here’s how it works: - U.S. farmers in 20+ states grow corn, beans, rice, wheat and other staples.
- Food for Peace purchases and ships that food thousands of miles to communities across the globe that have been ravaged by conflict, drought and natural disasters.
-
Non-emergency Food for Peace programs help families grow their own food with seeds, tools and training.
Every child needs nourishment to learn, grow and succeed. Will you join the fight on World Food Day? |
