2. If you cannot feed a hundred people, then feed just one.”
–Mother Teresa

3. Why does this
resonate with
me?
Growing up, my parents always reminded me how
fortunate I am, to be grateful for everything I have
and taught me about those less fortunate. I am very
lucky to indulge in 3 meals a day and most times I feel
guilty. This project resonates with me because it
helps me be more aware of the problems around the
world and teaches me how to take action. I would
love to help make a difference in the starving world
and end hunger. Every chance I get, I always give my
left overs or spare change to those in need. Being
able to help others allows me to enjoy what I have.

population are suffering from hunger. 1 in every
9 people in the world.
• Children are the most visible victims of
undernutrition. 3.1 million children each year.
• 2/3 of undernourished people live in two regions
– Sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia
• Climate-induced shocks, civil insecurity and
declining food production have all contributed to
food scarcity and high food prices.
