A high school group working with local Kids Against Hunger organization. The organization packages an enriched rice mixture to send to starving kids worldwide. The organization so far has packaged over 100,000 meals.
We have helped our local group by spreading awarness about Kids Against Hunger through out the high school and creating a website. We are looking for ways to help our school to raise money to donate to the Kids Against Hunger organization. It takes $500 for an hour worth of packaging that will feed more than 2,160 people worldwide.

I am a student at UMASS-Dartmouth who began a volunteer project and is slowly bringing into a full-time project following my graduation. This project takes place in La Romana, Dominican Republic where Haitians leave extreme poverty only to find themselves in extreme poverty. These people live and work in sugarcane fields seven days per week for fourteen hours a day making as little as $10. They have no electricity, no running water, no medical care, very little food and little education. Ailments such as malnutrition, HIV, malaria and typhoid are a huge part of this scenario. This project works with the Good Samaritan Hospital in La Romana to bring water, sturdy homes, schools and medical care to these villages. This is an ongoing project, which began in 2006.

ClipAid.com was started in the November of 200. The way the site works is simple. We post videos, pictures, and other interesting content, and our raise funds through paid advertisements. The money earned through these advertisements than goes to support the United Nation’s World Food Program. The inspiration comes from FreeRice.com, a site where users can answer vocabulary questions and donate grains of rice for every question they correctly answer. At ClipAid, you donate for watching videos and pictures.

Team Hunger Force is an organization started by Josie D. and Scott L. to raise food, money, and awareness about world hunger and how it plagues the world. We recently held our first fund raiser in our hometown (Cheboygan, MI), which consisted of a door-to-door canned food drive, a raffle for products from local businesses, bakes sales, and a concert series in the evening. While in the future we will not be hosting identical events, we are going to continue to promote awareness and try to make a difference across Michigan. We attended the Cheboygan Street Fair to alert people how serious world hunger is, and we will be at the Charlevoix Fudgie Fest September 1st, to talk with the community and let them our goals and dreams for THF. Aside from our main goal of helping demolish world hunger, we want to inspire and promote youth involvement while giving back to the community. All of our raffles, promotions, and donations will directly affect the community they came from so that the public can see the hard work they've put in to THF with us. Even if you don't live in Michigan, or anywhere near our events, add us on myspace (www.myspace.com/teamhungerforce) because a little support can go a long way, and we really appreciate kind words and encouragement.
