Hey!

 

  I was part of a group effort to raise awareness about hunger and talk to people about food waste. Nancy Huddleston, Rob Thomas, and I recieved donations from several other people and turned our original forty dollars into a hundred dollars. We chose to do this because we were part of the thiry hour famine and wanted to make others aware of the effect of hunger on other nations. So we decided to sit in the cafeteria and hand out a small fact sheet about hunger that we typed up. We also told people that if they heard us out and went trayless for a meal we would give them a dollar. We also made a petition up, for those interested, on transporting the unused, untouched food to a homeless shelter or any other place that could use it; instead of us throwing it away. This petition was just to see if the student body would be interested in trying to get this complex issue sorted out. Overall we used all the money in one night and got over three hundred signatures it was very successful. =) Thanks for everyones contributions!
