Homeless

 There are an estimated 800 million people around the
world suffer from hunger.Each year 15 million children die from hunger.There are 700,000 people
homeless in USA.The number has grown
20% from 2007-2011.In just New Jersey
there was 7,847 adults & 4,117 children
in the year 2010.It has greatly increased
since the economy has gotten worse.
Many of the homeless suffer from Mental illness or substance abuse.Others have lost their jobs and have not been able to find employment.Many people turn to Food Pantries to get food to help them survive.A  food pantry is a charitable organization that collects can and fresh foods.Food here is free for those in need.Without donations they would be closed.So next time you sit down and eat think of those less fortunate.If you have extra please donate to your local
food pantry.
