Dine Out for No Kid Hungry

No Kid Hungry Share our Strength is working to eradicate childhood hunger in America by 2015.  Having spent almost a decade teaching in urban schools where I worked with children who were often hungry, this is a cause I feel very strongly about.  America is a super power, yet we can't manage to ensure that all of our children eat at least 3 healthy meals a day.  Many of the kids I worked with often only had the meals provided at school on any given day. It's hard to learn when one is focused on a hungry belly.

Support this cause simply by going out to dinner during the week of September 16.  Use this link to learn more about the Dine Out for No Kid Hungry: http://join.strength.org/site/PageServer?pagename=GADO_homepage

Last year Jeff and I went to Ted's Montana Grill.  We simply added a donation to our check, and received a gift certificate from the restaurant in appreciation.  Where will you go this year to support the end of childhood hunger in America?  http://dineout.nokidhungry.org/maps
