What kids can do to make a difference about poverty and hunger.

WhyHunger is a leader in building the movement to end hunger and poverty by connecting people to nutritious, affordable food and by supporting grassroots solutions that inspire self-reliance and community empowerment.

RESULTS Educational Fund (REF) believes that every human being deserves a chance to realize her/his potential. This means that all people must have access to basic health care and food, an education, and a place in the economic system so they can earn a living. We know that all people can have access to these basic needs in our world of riches and innovation, but many get left behind providing opportunity to all is not a political priority. To change this we must become powerful advocates for the end of poverty. It sounds big, but if we work together and take the right actions, it is possible. REF can show you how.

Our food system is broken. Some people don't have enough food, while others are eating too much. There's only one way to fix this problem and it starts with you and me.

We will offer solutions and environmentally sustainable ways of alleviating hunger, obesity, and poverty by creating a network of connections and information for us to consume and share. Food Tank is for farmers and producers, policy makers and government leaders, researchers and scientists, academics and journalists, and the funding and donor communities to collaborate on providing sustainable solutions for our most pressing environmental and social problems.
