Hunger in America
This year, many families will not be having a normal Christmas nor a normal dinner. Around this time of the year, in December, many of families are lucky to have at least one hot meal out of the year. Many people facing hunger are forced to make tough choices between buying food and medical bills. Food, rent, and transportation are all expenses today’s society has to worry about and not everybody can afford to support all those things. This struggle goes beyond harming an individual family’s future. As of 2017 the average amount of people homeless in the USA is about 554,000 which is about .17% of our population. Food banks all over America will be helping out a lot this December for families to have a good meal this month.
A program called World Food Program USA brings the American people together to support the lifesaving work of the United Nations World Food Program, the global leader to help fight and end global hunger. Ending hunger and malnutrition is one of the greatest challenges of our time, but it is something that can be solved but in a matter of time. We live in a world where there is enough food that exist to feed everyone and have zero hunger but it’s the matter of our government and etc. Giving donations and helping at your local food bank makes a big impact in our community and helps end starvation not only in Greensboro but in America.
