Hunger is not appetite; it is a profound debilitating, devasting, intensively painful human experience. If it goes on long enough it kills us. All of us have experienced short term hunger or hunger pangs. Did you ever realise that this situation is being faced by many many poor kids from the time of their birth? Are those kids responsible for what they face today? The absolutely poor do not have enough to eat, often substituting on one meal per day instead of two or three. Hunger is a faithful companion for the very poor. The very poor have no access to education, to basic health care, to drinking water supplies, to sanitation services etc.

Millions of children give up on life at a very early age. Their dreams and hopes get crushed right from the begining. Children fill us with lot of happiness with their playful deeds and sweet words. But we are touched with their single cry. Why dont we think of those poor kids too who do not have a living? Here in the U.S, we provide healthy food for our  kids and still always think about the best food we can provide to them. How much our  kids enjoy the mother's love? But think of some kids who are all alone in this world and have no one to take care of.

Here we enjoy the coziness in winter with warm clothes. But what about those kids  scrambling to prepare for the harsh winter and who do not have blankets to keep themselves warm. Those kids go to bed shivering and crying on those dirty pavements.

For a minute, let us imagine by putting ourselves in their shoes. Isn�t it painful? Now that we realized, let us do something for those hungry kids. It may take years and huge amount at the end of day. Let us not step back for this reason. "Just like drops of water that go on to make a river, TOGETHER we can make a difference in the lives of those starving kids". Let us start today!. Even a dollar can bring a smile on the face of a starving kid.

Human issue - Today ending hunger is not primarily a technical or production issue, it is a  human issue. Hunger persists because we as human beings have failed to organise our  societies in ways that assure every person the chance to live a healthy and productive life.
