Food For Thought
An estimated
100 billion pounds of food, enough to totally eliminate hunger, is thrown away annually in the United States.
It does not have to be this way - and
you can help.
Created by a
CNN Hero, the AmpleHarvest.org Campaign helps
thousands of food pantries nationwide receive fresh produce - improving community health while also helping the environment.
The number food insecure people in America exceeds the populations of Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Nevada, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont and West Virginia -
added together.
