Ending Hunger

USA Today produced an article about ending hunger in the United States. It is important to understand that hunger not only effects those in need directly, but it has a larger impact on the economy in the long run. Malnutrition can involve hospital visits that costs a lot of money. Money that people could be spending on food to combat their hunger. James D. Weill, the president of Food Research and Action Center, said, “What all this comes down to is that hunger and food insecurity not only are unnecessary in our wealthy nation, but they are vastly counterproductive to our nations goals.” Here in Boulder we can help by giving to those in need. EFAA’s food bank provides a variety of organic and brand name products that clients can choose from. It is important to understand that the only way Boulder can thrive as an inclusive community by helping one another lead healthy fruitful lives.
