IDES – March 14 2016 – Hunger Still Exists

Hunger Still Exists

There are around 795 million people in the world who will go to bed hungry tonight. That’s an estimated 1 in every 9 persons. The fight exists on two battlefronts: Hunger and Malnutrition. Some do not have any food, while others do not have nutritious food. Why is this still true on our planet?

This week and next, we will spend some time exploring this massive issue and how you can personally make a difference in the lives of those who are struggling to secure their next meal. If you feel led, you can start striking back against hunger and malnutrition right now through the IDES Gift Catalog! Below is a link to the Hunger Relief Items page on the website.

This week’s Project Story is the first installment in a two-week series of reports from our partners on the mission field who are fighting hunger and malnutrition one meal at a time. Our partners in Haiti recently received a shipment of nutritious GAP Meals, hand-packed and fundraised by IDES volunteers. Check our News blog on the website this Wednesday to find out the impact that has been made since the shipment arrived.
