Summary

While some of us sit here with stomachs filled with as many Thanksgiving foods as we could manage, there are those feeling the rumblings of an empty stomach.

According to Feeding America, 1 in 7 people in the United States face hunger today, and 1 in 5 are children. Join us in making a small dent in a big problem at dailystoic.com/feeding This year we are personally putting up the first $30,000, with our overall goal to raise $300,000. Every dollar we raise provides 10 meals, so if we hit our goal, that will be three MILLION meals!
