WHITE HOUSE LAUNCHES 'FEED A NEIGHBOR' INITIATIVE

According to the White House Office of Faith Based and Community Partnerships, "President Obama is calling on all Americans to come together to solve hunger in our communities."

Toward that end, the Corporation for National and Community Service is launching the United We Serve: Feed a Neighbor initiative in collaboration with the White House and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).

The purpose of the initiative is to raise public awareness of hunger issues and ask Americans to help ensure that their neighbors have access to nutritional food this winter and throughout the year. Although focusing the national spotlight on hunger this holiday season, the Corporation and USDA hope to continue their year-round commitment to support anti-hunger programs in communities across the country.
