Bread for the World is a Christian organization that encourages the involvement of the United States in ending world hunger. Through influencing our nation's decision makers and pushing for changes in policies, programs and conditions that allow hunger and poverty to persist, this organization provides help and opportunity far beyond the communities in which we live.
Members of this organization personally write letters, send emails, meet with representatives in Congress, work through churches, campuses, and other organizations to spread the knowledge and inspiration needed to increase involvement and action. Bread for the World believes in ensuring that everyone has enough to eat and are not limited because they cannot afford to feed their family, saying, "Food is a basic need and it is unjust that so many people go without enough to eat."
They are asking for as much help as possible in this issue, urging others to take a step in ending world hunger whether its by donating to a organization such as Bread for the World, starting a fundraiser at your school, writing a letter to Congress, raising awareness of others, or volunteering your time to package or serve food. There are endless possibilities to what one person can offer and every bit helps.
