Child hunger facts: So do you think that hunger does not hit near your home? Child hunger is an issue that is closer than you think. Child hunger impacts your state, your country and your community. Did you ever think about the kids that do without? You can find hunger statistics for your area on the Child Hunger Ends Here website: http://www.childhungerendshere.com/hungermap.html . Select your state and county from the interactive map and learn more about your neighbors struggling with hunger and the food banks that serve them.
For those families and others across the country, every meal counts, and you can help! You can continue to visit the Child Hunger Ends Here website to enter codes found on participating ConAgra Foods product packaging through August 28. Each code represents one meal for a child who needs it.
