👏👏👏 The last The White House Conference on Food, Nutrition, + Health in 1969 led to incredible change and more Americans fed. Let's bring it back to ensure no student has to face food insecurity to earn their education. Thank you Rep. Jim McGovern Sen. Cory Booker for your leadership!
This commercial I was in manyyy years ago 2 raise awareness about hunger & food insecurity in the US is having a moment & I’m here for ittt! Tom Colicchio Lori Silverbush
@iKev_sl This is a spoof spot I produced in 2015 with BBH and the great Gerard Caputo as part of A Place at the Table's campaign to highlight the absurdity of hunger in the wealthiest nation on earth. (Lucie Pohl💥 was perfect.) We also made this: youtu.be/WBcX2EBwnNI
Use the Food Research & Action Center Action Network to urge your Members of Congress to sign-on to H.R. 6613, Keeping School Meals Flexible Act, a bipartisan effort to extend the Dept. of Agriculture #childnutrition waiver authority beyond the current expiration date of 6/30/22. p2a.co/1ARaoWb
The first & only The White House hunger conference took place in 1969. Funding is now signed into law for a second conference which is needed now more than ever. Join us and Rep. Jim McGovern & Sen. Cory Booker - ask to President Donald J. Trump give the green light. #POTUS
This is a great synopsis of the problem of child nutrition in this country. One of a few great documentaries about this is A Place at the Table A Place at the Table from 2012 so some things have changed but the folks who created it are doing some amazing advocacy work.
In a country where we spend billions on nuclear weapons, no child should go hungry. The The White House conference on hunger will learn from experts & those with lived experiences to transform how we think about food & develop solutions to end hunger now. cnn.com/2022/05/04/pol…
I’ve dedicated my career in public service to ending hunger in the U.S. & around the world. Tomorrow is the start of a new era—with a new roadmap to end the sad reality that nearly 40 million Americans face: hunger. I won’t stop until we’re successful. bostonglobe.com/2022/09/27/nat…
