Hi John,
This week, advocates across the nation are mobilizing for Hunger Action Day.
Now’s the perfect time to speak up for kids like Maryan*, who was recently diagnosed with malnutrition.
Kenya hasn’t had a successful rainy season in years — and now, there’s nothing left of her family’s livestock. Not long after losing their cattle and crops, Maryan and her siblings started growing weaker.
“They won’t even sleep when they’re hungry,” her mother says. “We live with the little milk we get from our neighbors.”
John, families like Maryan’s need more support to survive. That’s why we’re fighting for a better Farm Bill.
The Farm Bill helps millions around the world stave off hunger. But with conflict, climate change and the cost of living on the rise, its programs just can’t meet the need.
Luckily, lawmakers can build a better Farm Bill with a few small tweaks — so someday, communities like Maryan’s can survive, thrive and feed themselves.
Hunger Action Day is on its way, John. Kick it off with a message to Congress!
Thanks for being a voice for kids,
