This is a flier I helped create while I was an event planner for the National Student Campaign Against Hunger and Homelessness.
Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
The document discusses eradicating extreme poverty and hunger. It notes that an estimated 795 million people are undernourished globally. Locally, this goal can be applied in Washington State which has a growing homeless population exceeding 22,000 people. The author notes they will support this cause due to growing up in poverty. Personally, they plan to contribute through donations to organizations like UNICEF and spreading awareness on social media by joining communities focused on this issue.
The Compassion International Difference: Fighting Poverty Worldwide
Compassion International allows individuals to sponsor children in need around the world, impacting over a million children by providing education and healthcare. Poverty affects over 1.4 billion people, especially women and children, who make up almost half the population in developing countries. Each day, about 10,000 women die in childbirth and 10,000 newborns perish within a month, with over nine million children under five dying each year, two-thirds preventably. Compassion International enables sponsors to change these statistics for over $1 per day by ensuring children get food and education.
Food Justice Week
The Office of Community Service-Learning at the university hosted a week of events called Food Justice Week to raise awareness about local and global hunger issues. The week included a film screening of "A Place at the Table" about families struggling with food insecurity in the US. It also featured a chocolate taste test to educate about fair trade practices and the Hunger Banquet, which used different food experiences to simulate global inequities in access to food. The banquet highlighted that over 800 million people worldwide suffer from chronic hunger. Speakers discussed local organizations working to address hunger like the Marion-Polk Food Share.
The Race Card
The document discusses racial oppression and its role in unemployment and poverty among minority families. It argues that the saying "another day, another dollar" is misleading and demeaning because for many minorities, each dollar is essential for basic necessities like food and shelter. Racial oppression through social, systemic and institutional discrimination restricts social mobility for minorities and perpetuates existing social hierarchies that prevent change. The reality for many minorities in America is that time alone will not fix unemployment or poverty issues due to ongoing racial discrimination.

This document discusses ways to address poverty and world hunger locally and through organizations. It recommends contacting local social services for emergency assistance, using 211 to find local resources, and donating to or volunteering with food banks. Northwest Harvest is highlighted as an excellent local organization that provides meals across Washington state through various ways to get involved like volunteering, donating, or advocating. Crowdfunding and localized social media groups are also mentioned as features that can uniquely help gather resources for those in need.
Eradicating Extreme Poverty and Hunger
The document discusses ways to help eradicate extreme poverty and hunger locally. It recommends donating food, clothing, and other supplies to local food banks and charities in Auburn, Washington. Volunteers can also help out directly at the Auburn Food Bank. Using social media is suggested to spread awareness of poverty rates and share resources on how others can help through platforms like Instagram stories, Snapchat, and Twitter.
Soc 3 Willis Alexandria
The document discusses several topics at the intersection of society and culture, including:
1) How media portrayals of issues like disease and foreign food suppliers can influence public perceptions.
2) How social constructs can manipulate relationships and dating dynamics between men and women.
3) Whether poverty impacts religious rituals in less developed countries or the gender division of labor.
4) If socioeconomic status and race affect treatment in the legal system or law enforcement.

Tcom220-Eradicating Hunger
The document discusses eradicating extreme hunger and ways to help address the issue. It notes that over 800 million people still live in extreme poverty globally. During the COVID-19 pandemic, food insecurity in Washington state increased to 30%. The author suggests volunteering at a food bank, donating food or money, buying meals for those in need, and using social media and fundraising sites like GoFundMe to raise awareness and funds for addressing hunger locally and globally.
Povertyyyyyyy (1)
The document discusses poverty, defining it as not having enough money to meet basic needs. It notes that the Democratic Republic of Congo suffers most from poverty, with almost 80% of people living in poverty and 45,000 children dying each month due to starvation and illness. A few key organizations helping to fight poverty are mentioned, including Food for the Hungry and Feeding America, which provide food, medicine, education, and other resources. The document also discusses how poverty exists in Singapore and ways individuals can help, such as through food donation drives.
An overview of programs supported by the lois pope life foundation
The Lois Pope Life Foundation supports various charitable initiatives through financial awards, including medical research, humanitarian relief, and animal welfare. Some examples are providing $100,000 to establish a clean water system for a village in Guatemala after a hurricane, funding a summer camp program that has helped nearly 15,000 underprivileged children, and donating $50,000 to support a Sudan Genocide Response Team helping displaced Sudanese women.
Africa's Water - Thirst for Hope
The document discusses the lack of access to clean drinking water in Africa and its consequences. It notes that 19 of the 25 nations with the highest percentage of people without access to safe drinking water are in Africa. It describes how many Africans have to use polluted water sources for drinking, bathing, and sanitation, which spreads diseases and causes 700,000 deaths in Africa each year from water-borne illnesses. It calls on people, particularly in America, to help address this crisis through donations to organizations working to provide clean water in Africa.
Cruz, sara. impress
More than half of sub-Saharan Africa is in need of urgent food assistance according to the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization. Over 200 million people in Africa are malnourished due to systemic problems with African agriculture being in crisis. Political problems such as civil strife, refugee movements, and regime changes are responsible for hunger in more countries than natural problems like drought according to the FAO. The number of deaths from hunger in Africa has risen from 1 million in 1998 to over 3.5 million in 2004.
End poverty
This presentation includes information on extreme poverty and hungry and the steps we can do to help reach our goal.
Poverty Perspectively
The document discusses global poverty from multiple perspectives. It notes that while dozens of organizations aim to help those in need and raise awareness of poverty, it still persists globally. Statistics are provided on the large numbers of people worldwide who lack access to clean water, sanitation, or education. The document argues that poverty is relative and encourages considering one's situation from other points of view, such as comparing difficulties to living with makeshift shoes. It concludes that while some nations or individuals may be wealthy compared to most of the world, true wealth lies in the soul and global solutions are still needed to alleviate human poverty.
Poverty In Africa
Poverty is a major challenge facing many Africans. Approximately 800 million Africans, or 32 out of 38 African countries, live in highly impoverished conditions. Over 300 million of those living in poverty are children. Common causes of poverty include lack of access to employment, markets, and natural resources destruction. Life in poverty means many Africans survive on less than $1 per day, and have little access to healthcare, education, clean water or sanitation. However, some countries are making progress through initiatives to increase access to education, healthcare, and child sponsorships. The fact that over 800 million Africans go to sleep hungry each night, including 300 million children, is very surprising and eye opening.
Causes and Effects of Poverty
This document discusses poverty, including its causes, effects, and the poverty cycle. It defines absolute and relative poverty. The causes of poverty discussed include theories that the poor have little concern for the future or engage in self-defeating behaviors. The effects of poverty on children include higher rates of health problems, accidents, and missed school. Poverty also increases stress levels in families. The cycle of poverty refers to how poverty can span generations as those in poverty lack the resources to escape it.
Citizenship stage 2 powerpoint
Poverty is defined as lacking material possessions or money. About 21,000 people die daily from hunger or hunger-related issues, mostly children. While there is enough global food, poverty traps people without money to buy food, leading to malnourishment and increased vulnerability. Volunteering, such as fundraising during flag day in Singapore, and donating money or items like textbooks to charities can help address poverty by providing treatment, education, and opportunities to improve lives.
Global Issue - Children in Poverty
Around 21,000 children die around the world every day from poverty, hunger, and preventable illnesses and diseases. This amounts to over 7 million child deaths per year. Several organizations are working to address this issue and help children living in poverty through initiatives like sponsoring children, donating food and clothing, and reducing food waste. Individuals can help support these organizations or participate in activities online like Free Rice, a website where answering questions correctly donates rice to feed the hungry.
Jaimes Stuff
This document discusses hunger and poverty around the world. Over 1 billion people live in poverty and 850 million people suffer from chronic hunger. A child dies from hunger or preventable disease every 2.9 seconds. The document states that hunger is not due to lack of food production, but rather inequalities in access to education and resources that result in issues like illiteracy, poverty, and families' inability to grow or buy food. It highlights examples of small groups working to overcome hunger and poverty, such as small farmers in the US and indigenous groups in Central/South America.
Eradicate Extreme Poverty and Hunger
This document discusses eradicating extreme poverty and hunger. It defines poverty as a lack of basic needs like food, clothing, and shelter. It believes no family should fall below a level of comfort and the country should address its own issues before helping others. Locally, this could mean raising the minimum wage to include healthcare and family size, increasing food bank delivery frequencies, and providing free school meals and childcare. The greatest contribution could come from starting local donation websites, offering school dinners and childcare, and changing school programs. Social media advertising through political leaders could help change regulations to support this goal. The overall message is that eliminating poverty and hunger should be a top priority to improve lives and society.

Social media platforms can spread awareness of these issues and organizations through hashtags to reach many potential donors.
Houghton Jones Urban Ag
The document summarizes the mission and activities of the Houghton-Jones/Saginaw East-Central Neighborhood Association (HJ/SENA). HJ/SENA aims to foster community and empower residents through various programs, including a thrift store, summer camp, and neighborhood watch meetings. A key focus is the Saginaw Urban Food Initiative, which aims to provide healthy foods and jobs through urban farming on vacant lots, youth farm stands, and corner stores selling local produce. The initiative also emphasizes nutrition education and addressing food insecurity in the community.
Waste No More!
This document outlines a community service project called Waste No More! that aims to reduce food waste in the United States by collecting excess food from grocery stores and food businesses and distributing it to food banks and charities. The project founder cites statistics on food waste and hunger in the US to demonstrate the problem. Phase I of the project would pilot food collection and delivery in Broward County, Florida, while Phase II envisions a larger national expansion with an online ordering system and multi-level marketing strategy. The document describes plans for volunteers, fundraising, and sponsorship opportunities to support the project.
HUNGER AWARENESS
Hunger is a global problem caused by poverty, conflict, natural disasters, gender inequality, and seasonal changes. Over 800 million people worldwide do not get enough food to live healthy lives, and malnutrition is the top global health risk. Poor nutrition causes nearly half of all child deaths under age five. The document promotes a film showing fundraiser from July 23-31 to help feed hungry people, with 70% of profits going to charities.
Bread For The World
The document discusses the issue of hunger globally and the efforts of the organization Bread for the World to address it. Bread for the World was founded in 1972 to influence US policies around hunger. Each year it organizes a letter writing campaign to Congress to support anti-hunger legislation. It also advocates through student groups and media outreach. Some of its successes include influencing the Farm Bill and founding the ONE Campaign. The document argues that enough food is produced to end hunger but equitable distribution is needed and hunger is a political issue that can be addressed.

The document summarizes the issue of global hunger, noting that while the world is producing more food than ever, the number of people experiencing hunger continues to rise globally and in the United States. Over 750 million people faced severe food insecurity in 2019, with numbers projected to surpass 840 million by 2030. In Pierce County, Washington, 1 in 9 people are food insecure, with a 40% increase in visits to food programs from 2019 to 2020. The author's own experience with childhood hunger motivates them to help address this issue locally through food donations, raising awareness, and supporting organizations providing meals.

This document discusses several global issues including malnutrition and famine, illiteracy, poverty, and the work of charities to address these issues. It notes that over 850 million people go to bed hungry each night despite there being enough global food production. It also states that 776 million adults have no secure literacy skills, with 75 million children not attending school. Poverty is examined in Africa where harsh conditions exacerbate poverty. Several charities are profiled including Oxfam, Book Aid International, and Doctors Without Borders that provide aid for issues like access to food, water, healthcare, and education.
Povertyin The World
The document discusses definitions of poverty and approaches to defining and measuring it. It notes that a clear definition supports measurement and determining development approaches. It then examines Oxfam Australia's Close the Gap campaign, which aims to close the life expectancy gap between Aboriginal Australians and non-Aboriginal Australians within a generation. The campaign takes a human rights approach, viewing poverty as an exclusion from fundamental freedoms and rights. Health is included as a dimension of poverty, as both a cause and result of human rights abuses.
Sociology Presentation
The document poses several sociological questions about how media, technology, food, communication methods, gender roles, and religion have influenced American society over time. It asks how realities shows, hip hop, and celebrities have shaped teenage interactions. It also questions whether consistent iPhone innovations reflect aspirations for the American Dream, and how candles versus electricity symbolize values. Further, it inquires into how fast food relates to childhood obesity, the rise of texting over calls, and how women joining the workforce transformed family roles. Finally, it examines how TV impacts relaxation and children's health, and whether religious diversity indicates American individualism's regional limits.

This document is a newsletter from Kids Against Hunger that includes the following:
- An introduction from the CEO about his path to leading the organization and encouraging others to find their "Higher Calling" in serving others through Kids Against Hunger.
- An article about the reality of food insecurity in the United States, highlighting that over 48 million Americans are food insecure and Kids Against Hunger's new Latin Rice product could help address nutritional needs.
- A spotlight on the Cairo, Georgia satellite location of Kids Against Hunger, praising their faithful work despite being a smaller location.
Hunger In America
Hunger in America is a significant problem, with millions suffering from lack of access to nutritious food. Many Americans rely on food stamps and private organizations for assistance. Key groups impacted include the elderly, unemployed, immigrants, and disabled. Despite food waste and unused production, over 800 million people worldwide and millions in the US experience hunger. Proper nutrition is essential for child development but lacking for many.
Witnesses, Workers and Prophets: Tools to live our faith in a Globalized World
Witnesses, Workers and Prophets: Tools to live our faith in a Globalized WorldOffice of Religious Education
The document discusses Catholic Relief Services' (CRS) work to help those in need around the world based on Catholic social teachings. CRS is the humanitarian agency of the US Catholic community that provides aid to over 100 countries, assisting over 100 million people in 2008. The organization is motivated by the Gospel's call to care for the poor and helps all people regardless of nationality, race or creed. CRS works to promote economic development, food security, and advocacy efforts to address the root causes of global issues like hunger and poverty. The document encourages readers to get involved through witness, work, and prophecy to stand in solidarity with those worldwide who are vulnerable or marginalized.World hunger research paper final
World hunger is a major global problem, with over 925 million people estimated to be hungry according to 2010 UN statistics. Hunger kills more people each year than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. While the world produces enough food for everyone, poverty prevents many from accessing adequate nutrition. Individuals can help address world hunger through donations, participating in food drives, and raising awareness of the issue.

Roberson-Pornography as a Health Issue- 3/28/24
Pornography is negatively impacting mental health, especially in youth. Prolonged viewing can lead to unrealistic expectations of sex, increased risky behavior, and negative body images in teens. It can also normalize rape myths and increase rates of depression in adults. Without addressing this issue, more youth will be exposed and affected long term by pornography. The document proposes a Porn Addicts Anonymous support group similar to Alcoholics Anonymous to help those struggling without stigma.
