Over one billion people live in chronic hunger. Every six seconds, a child dies of hunger.

By signing a new on-line petition to end world hunger (http://www.1billionhungry.org/), you will be sending a powerful message to world leaders: It is unacceptable that a billion people are going hungry. Changing this reality should be our top priority.
