Editor's Notes
- As of 2016 around 815 million people in the world suffer from chronic undernourishment. The biggest cause of this hunger is poverty, and what causes poverty? The most common reason is a lack of education as uneducated people have significantly lower job opportunities. In many cases children in foreign countries are not able to go to school because finances are so tight they need to work to provide for themselves. To get children to school we have to provide an incentive that helps parents understand that sending their kids to school will improve their future and their lives right now. If we extend the school breakfast program to these areas parents will be given one less mouth to feed while their children receive a world of opportunity.
