Hunger Project

When you order your meal, do you order a lot of foods that you like? Or you just eat enough for your daily routine? While we are having our meals, there are 10,000 people dying everyday due to hunger and malnutrition.

This story touches my heart when I view it. It was produced in year 2005 for a short film festival in 2006. Though this is an old production, I hope to spread this short touching film to everyone I know.

Why food is not affordable to those people? According to The Foundation for Hospices in Sub-Saharan Africa, the food cost for a family per month ranges from US$64 – US$ 120, depending on location.

How can we help?

The inflation of food makes the situation in Africa worst due to rich country can afford to buy those foods.
2. Educate our friends and family about the saving food. Share the above short film with our friends and family. Spread this information, and make more people realized how fortunate we are. Appreciate what we have now.
