One thing I know for sure about the movement to end hunger: everyone has a part to play. And by everyone, we really do mean everyone, no matter their age.
Take Franny from New York, who started a virtual bake sale to end hunger when she was just 6 years old!
She told us: "I want to make a difference. I don't want to just stand on the sidelines."

Connor started a club in 10th grade to organize volunteers for Feeding San Diego.
In his own words, "The second we got there and each person saw the first person they gave food to, it wasn't even a question about the reason we were there. It was a mission."

And then there's Benton, who speaks directly to local and federal elected officials from Montana about hunger policy.
"Just because we're young, we also have a voice, and we want to be part of the fight."

I am so inspired by these young change-makers. Where some people see limits, they see possibilities. Each has found their own way to help address hunger, whether it's through fundraising, volunteering, or advocacy.
And the message I take from their stories is simple: If they can do it, so can I. And so can you!
Thanks for your support in this movement.
Sincerely,
