Skip 1

At church on Sunday we learned about Skip1, a division of Children's Hunger Fund. The concept is to skip something (breakfast/lunch/dinner/latte/maincure/pedicure/movie/buying clothes/etc.), donate the money you would have spent, and help save lives by providing food to those who otherwise would not eat. Pretty simple. Pretty awesome. Here is some info:


We skip because we can.
We skip because 1/6th of the Earth's population is undernourished - more than ever before!
We skip because 25,000 people die every day from hunger and related causes.
We skip because every 6 seconds a child dies of hunger and related causes.
We skip something because the world needs our help.

Donate to skip1.org. Skip something. Feed a child.

Skip1.org taps into the world's wealth to bring food and water to children and families in need around the world. Public donations go to the acquisition and distribution of food and water projects worldwide.
