We have no choice but to act when:
-
1 in 6 people (1 in 5 children) experience food insecurity
-
26% of edible food is thrown away each year
-
The US spends more on military than the next 13 nations combined, while programs of social uplift continue to be sacrificed
Because food is a right, not a privilege
“A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death.”
― Martin Luther King, Jr.
