Save the Children Action Network is the political voice for kids. 

John, Wednesday was World Food Day.  

And millions of children went to bed with empty bellies. My last email introduced Tariq, an 11-year-old boy who knows hunger all too well.   

“My sisters are starving,” he says. “I just hope they get better, able to play and go to school.” 

John, you can speak up for children like Tariq. Please, tell Congress to build a better Farm Bill.

Hunger knows no borders, boundaries or limits. If you believe every child deserves a chance to thrive, sign our petition today.

John,

This World Food Day, millions of children will go to bed hungry – like Tariq* and his baby sister, Hana*.  

Displaced by the war in Syria, they live in crushing poverty. “My siblings are sick, and all I can think about is their health,” says 11-year-old Tariq. “I’m scared because they’re suffering from malnutrition.”  

With Tariq’s father earning less than $1 per day, humanitarian aid is all that stands between his family and starvation.  

Stories like theirs remind us why the Farm Bill matters. On World Food Day, join us in urging Congress to strengthen food assistance. 

Hunger impacts a child’s whole world, John – weakening their immune systems and even stunting their growth.  

In the face of such devastating consequences, the Farm Bill can safeguard kids’ futures. Investing in its lifesaving programs should be a priority for Congress, especially with global hunger on the rise.  

In honor of World Food Day and children like Tariq, let’s push for a better Farm Bill! 

Thanks for being a voice for kids,

Christy Gleason
