Learn about hunger
Recognizing that local hunger has global effects, we do what we can to feed the hungry.
- One out of six Americans does not have access to enough food
- 16 million children are living in food-insecure households
- The lack of adequate nutrition affects the cognitive and behavioral development of children.
- Children from food-insecure households are more likely to suffer from irritability, fatigue and difficulty concentrating than those who have adequate nutrition.
Based on statistics from Feeding America
“Hunger is actually the worst weapon of mass destruction. It claims millions of victims each year.”
Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, President of BrazilPrograms
