Ten Simple Ways To Help Children and Their Families in 2014

Ten simple ways to help children in 2014, from Feed The ChildrenSource:

The numbers are overwhelming. One in five ¾«¶«Ó°Òµn households with children were unable to put adequate food on the table at times during the year. One in eight people around the world regularly do not get enough food to live an active life. These numbers represent precious human lives and millions of children who lack what they need to reach their potential.

If you find yourself looking at these numbers, concluding that the problem is too big, and turning away, you aren’t alone. But just for today, don’t. Sit with it for a minute. Then know this: Hunger is a big problem both in the United States and around the world, but you can help.

The staff at Feed The Children were asked to suggest simple things that ordinary people could do to help, not to feel better about ourselves but to truly make life better for the people around us who are going without.
