Today is World Food Day. Why not use this day as an excuse to help feed the hungry? World Food Day USA has a list of World Food Day events that can give you an idea of how people are serving communities locally and internationally.
One easy idea:
For less than $100 you can buy the ingredients for more than 200 ham and cheese sandwiches in about an hour. Your local homeless shelter would be happy to have them. Often, these kinds of donations are the only food these people will get in a day. Some organizations like 363 Days are trying to do this in an organized way.
Why stop at one day? Get your friends together and commit to making sandwiches for a particular shelter once a month. You get to socialize with your friends and help those in need. It’s win-win!
Then make yourself a delicious dinner and enjoy every bite…because everybody’s gotta eat.
