Welcome - Why hunger can be ended in our lifetime

Each and every day 20,000 people die as a consequence of chronic, persistent hunger. Approximately 800 million people live in conditions of poverty so severe that they are unable to obtain enough food to meet their daily requirements, effecting their health, productivity, and life expectancy. World hunger is NOT a result of insufficient resources, it occurs when people lack opportunity to earn enough money, to be educated and gain skills, to meet basic health needs and have a voice in the decisions that affect their community.

There is a growing movement of organizations who realize that hunger is a result of lack of opportunity and gender inequality and are aggressively addressing these issues. As a result of embracing such cutting edge approaches to poverty, these organizations are witnessing sustainable strides in eradicating poverty in the communities where they work. The problem is that the majority of foriegn aid is not invested in this empowerment model of development. That is why FeelGood is spreading the word about this new model and raising money for the expansion of people centered development. Through a grilled cheese, we are changing attitudes about the poor and partnering powerfully with our brothers and sisters across the globe to bring about the end of hunger in our lifetime. It can be done.
