Hungry?

Have you ever been hungry? I mean REALLY hungry; so hungry that you literally ached?

Have you ever wanted to feed someone else, but knew that you didn't really have the money? Or maybe you've wanted to feed those people you see on the commercials with the distended bellies but you knew you'd probably never get to go all the way to their country. Has that ever happened?

Visit the Hunger Site. Just by clicking on the yellow button (which costs you nothing but a few seconds of your time) you can generate the funds from sponsors to provide staple foods through Mercy Corps, Feeding America (formerly America's Second Harvest), and Millennium Promise. Every cent that is paid by sponsors to advertise on the Hunger Site's page goes to these charitable partners. Funds are divided between the partners and their projects and are able to feed hungry people in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Latin America and North America.

"The Hunger Site was founded to focus the power of the Internet on a specific humanitarian need: the eradication of world hunger. Since its launch in June 1999, the site has established itself as a leader in online activism, helping to feed the world's hungry. On average, over 220,000 individuals from around the world visit the site each day to click the yellow 'Click Here to Give - it's FREE' button. To date, more than 300 million visitors have given more than 671 million cups of staple food." (taken from their How Does the Hunger Site Work? section).

The Hunger Site also offers a myriad of other ways to help. One is to visit the Hunger Site Store where the shipping is always $3.95 and you always have the option to show your support and spread the word. The Hunger Site Store also offers items that have been fairly-traded and various handcrafted items from across our world to help generate funding to pull families and communities out of the poverty and hunger cycle.


You know you're gonna shop and you KNOW you're gonna peruse the internet. Why not do it with love in mind?
