Hunger is injustice. Together we can end it!
Hunger and poverty are caused by political choices. Ending hunger means changing politics.
Let your representatives in government know how you feel. It is our right – and our responsibility – as constituents to speak our minds and demand action.
The actions on this page explain why (and how) you should call specific elected officials to account. Your calls and emails make a difference!
Want to do more? Come to our Action Against Hunger Team meeting this month to be a key part of these, and other, campaigns.
Current Actions
