    In conclusion, Feed My Starving Children was a great cause for us to use in our project. But in retrospect our team consensus was that there were entirely too many teams that selected the same project. It was a bit disheartening when we realized that others had similar presentations. In comparison to previous group projects, Com Champs has been efficient and rewarding for us as a team. A major factor for the success of our team would have to be setting the proper expectation and culture of what we consider a well-organized group. Having each member accept set culture and add their personal touch was paramount to Com Champs.…

    No Kids Hungry is a great organization. Having little or no food is a huge issue in society today. Most children come to school hungry because they do not have enough to eat at home. It is sad that sometimes children only meal is in school. I am glad to hear that this organization provide meals for children outside of school. Not being able to eat a good balance meal can cause health issues and the child will not be able to function on their school work because all they can think about is being hungry. I was also please that No Kids Hungry is making progress in the community level because certain communities need more program and funding than others.…

    Surveying around the world, one may discover that many people when hungry, have the means to fulfil their appetite. This can be done through access to food; where people satisfy their hungry by enjoying a sandwich, or maybe even joining the dinner table for a nourishing meal. However, sadly this is not true in all cases. Hunger is one of the most challenging situations that seem to impossible to cure. More alarming are its effect on the human body, which in most cases are disastrous. Studies have shown that out of every nine people, there is one that is either hungry or malnourished. In addition, according to World Food Programme here are listed several stats on hunger: “there are 795 million people who are underfed around the world.” That “poor nutrition causes nearly half (45%) of deaths in children under five - 3.1 million children each year.” To include, that “one in four of the world's children are stunted.…

    According to statistics, in 2015 42.2 million people in America were food insecure and of that 13.1 million were children (Hunger and Poverty Facts and Statistics). Hunger has become an epidemic and has threatened America’s great future, and because of this government and non-government agencies have become united across America to provide assistance to individuals and families in need of food. Although they have come together to fight this epidemic the federal and private responses are not actually addressing the root causes of hunger and food insecurity in a way for it to be diminished, instead the numbers of food insecure people have been holding steady or growing since consistent records have been kept (Anderson,113-122). Many Americans have to reply on food stamps and private organizations to assist with this crises and it is hard to believe that with the power and wealth of this great country we are not more organized in combatting this…

    I am writing this letter in regards to bring this problem to people’s attention in hopes to motivate those who are just as concerned about world hunger as I am to make a stand and work together to tackle this problem. Currently there are over 1 billion people across the world who are malnourished. Being malnourished does not mean that you are simply hungry it can lead to many other problems like infectious diseases, delay physical and mental development, reduce work productivity and increase the risk of premature death. In addition poverty is one of the major factors that can be blamed for world hunger, the reasons for poverty can be defined as a lack of resources, and extremely unequal income distribution…

Children overall mentioned fatigue, loss of motivation, and painful stomach aches. One girl described the sensation as sad, and that she felt like crying as the sensation took its course. Another boy said that he would drink heaps of water to alleviate its adverse effects. No child had something pleasant to say regarding the sensation. Hunger, a feeling of discomfort caused by a lack of food, was the sensation that the children alluded to. The children used in the research lived in New Jersey, a region of high food insecurity, not…

    Imagine a hungry six year old, in ratty clothing walking along the side of the road you are driving on, with a rusty bucket going to get water for her family. Terrible, isn’t it? But this is normal to see in developing countries. This six year old girl’s brother is probably in a rundown school, learning basic reading and math. Her family needs her to fetch food and water for them, and working long, tiring hours sewing leather for a football or shelling walnuts. Why? To pay the fee of her brothers education. It costs a lot for them. They don’t know that if they had her go to school, she could grow to be a strong, powerful woman with a good job such as a doctor, teacher, or lawyer. Then she…
