Here's a number for you: 925 million.

That's how many people in the world do not have enough to eat. And for many of those people living in extreme poverty, "not enough" doesn't just mean "not enough to be comfortable" or "not enough to hold them over until dinner".  We're talking about "not enough" to meet the minimum nourishment levels necessary for the health and growth of a human being.

With this number in mind, we've decided to spend some time doing something we feel we don't do enough: stop and think about what it's like to be hungry. Which is not an easy thing to do, given how easily distracted we are by the hundreds of daily todos that are always "on our plate", demanding our attention.

So here's our plan: to get ourselves thinking about hunger, we've decided to force the issue by...going hungry. We have a feeling that we'll think more about hunger when our stomachs start aching, our heads start hurting, our energy levels drop, and we just generally stop feeling good. (At least, that's usually what happens to us when we stop eating.)

And then, with a tiny glimpse of what 925 million people experience around the world, daily, we will once again be reminded of how great it is that people and organizations put so much time, energy, and resources into addressing the problem of hunger.

Wanna Help?

On April 7th-8th, we're fasting for 30 hours so we can have a better understanding of the hunger which millions of people experience every day. While we're doing this, we're inviting our friends (THAT'S YOU!!) to support us by donating to this cause. Every donation will provide nutritious meals for hungry children.

It costs just 22 cents to provide a nutritious meal to a severely malnourished child.

$22 provides 100 meals and feeds a child for over 3 months.

$40 feeds a child for 6 months.

$80 feeds a child for a year.

Our personal goal is to raise $500 to feed 6 children for over a year! Will you help us End Hunger Fast?

This is a big goal for us, but it's a big issue, and it will make a HUGE impact in the lives of the children we can feed together. So will you join us in supporting this cause by donating to our fast? 100% of the donations we receive will directly provide nutritious meals through the Food 4others MobilePack.

DONATE NOW to end hunger fast for a child in poverty!

PSSST-- Every donor who gives to this cause on or before April 8th will be added to our End Hunger Fast DRAWING for a chance to win fun prizes. It's just our way of saying thank you for supporting this cause with us.
