Call to Action: Operation No Kid Hungry

I’ve worked on a few projects addressing the issue of childhood hunger over the years. The fact that anyone, especially a child, faces hunger on a daily basis is disturbing and requires everyone's help to make a difference.

Share Our Strength has launched a new campaign to raise funds to help end childhood hunger. "Operation No Kid Hungry" responds to President-elect Obama's call to action to end childhood hunger by 2015.

Here are a few ways you can support and participate in "Operation No Kid Hungry":

♦ Donate by text: Text "SHARE" to 20222 on your mobile device to donate $5. AT&T will match all text donations up to $100,000. Help meet this challenge grant!

♦ Hold a food drive: Beginning January 19th, a national day of community service, help feed those in need by holding your own community food drive. Visit Share Our Strength's website to find a food bank and a list of the most needed nutritious foods.

♦ Spread the word by posting info on your blog and adding a banner/badge.

One hungry child is one too many.
