Why We are Focusing on Childhood Hunger

In the world's wealthiest nation, no child should grow up hungry. Yet, over the course of the year, more than 12 million children in America are at risk of hunger. That's one in six with limited or uncertain access to the nutritious foods they need to develop to their full potential.

Poverty is complex; feeding a child is not. Despite the good efforts of governments, private-sector institutions and everyday Americans, not all of our children have daily access to the nutritious meals they need to live active, healthy lives. Through dedicated, committed volunteers and community organizations, Share Our Strength finds childhood hunger where it hides, and works to end it.
