Between 2008-2010, statewide visits to food shelves
increased by 62%. In the nine-county Twin Cities
metro area, visits jumped 97%.
America is the richest country in the world. And yet tonight, thousands of your neighbors will go to bed hungry.
It may be your child's schoolmate who is undernourished and has difficulty learning on an empty stomach.
Or it could be a co-worker, a working mother whose low-wage job doesn't make ends meet.
Perhaps it's an elderly neighbor who has to make a decision whether to delay filling a prescription or buying groceries.
The faces of hunger are as broad as the faces of America.
~ David Nasby, former VP of General Mills Foundation

The money she puts in the Share section is for her to give away.

Imagine how many people we can feed if we work together.
