Dear John,
|
|
The numbers don't lie. This year, fewer kids are hungry in America. And your support helped us move the needle in the fight against childhood hunger.
|
| That's why I wanted to make sure you saw these numbers—so you could understand the incredible impact you have on the lives of so many kids.
|
| Last year, 1 child in 6 lived with hunger in our country.
|
| According to the latest statistics, that number has dropped to 1 in 7.
|
| This year alone, you helped secure an additional 11.5 million breakfasts for hungry kids.
|
| You fueled legislative wins that unlocked MILLIONS to feed more than 605,000 kids.
|
| Your support helped provide an estimated 783,000 additional afterschool meals to kids.
|
| John, you should take pride in the fact that, since No Kid Hungry began in 2010, childhood hunger in our country has fallen by a third.
|
| Of course, we won't rest until we end childhood hunger for good. But I wanted you to know how much you've already helped. Thanks for your compassion, your commitment and your partnership.
