World Hunger and Poverty

The following video shows glimpses of children around the world, with a song by Tim Janis, in support of CROP Hunger Walks. The song is sung by school children in Kenya.

Poverty & Hunger Facts:

• 18,000 children die everyday from hunger.
• Globally, over 1 billion children live in poverty.
• In the United States, 14 million children live in food insecure households.
• 21% of all children in the United States live in poverty.

Why do we allow this to happen, when we have enough resources for everyone to have food, clothes, and shelter?
