Hungerthon Raises Funds, Awareness

As we all know, there is no one solution to stamping out hunger and poverty. Instead, there must be an ongoing effort across disciplines - individual and organized - that includes both money and action.

To everyone who participated in WHY’s 2009 Hungerthon campaign fundraising efforts, THANK YOU.  Together, we raised nearly $550,000.  You helped to make a difference in the lives of the 49 million Americans and the more than 1 billion people worldwide for whom hunger is an everyday reality.

Please keep checking back to learn about how WHY has invested your donations in fighting hunger and poverty.  And, beginning in September 2010, please check back at hungerthon.org for Hungerthon 2010dates, events, business sponsorship information, and volunteer opportunities. 

In the meantime, if you have any Hungerthon-related questions, please email Hungerthon’s director at: hungerthon@whyhunger.org.
