I interrupt our regular food-focused conversation to bring you a post of a different kind\u2026<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s talk childhood hunger. It\u2019s a problem. Here, in the United States. New numbers indicate that 1 in 4 children in America don\u2019t have enough food to eat every single day. Around 1 million more kids are living in poverty this year than last year. Dedicated, hard-working families are struggling to feed their children. {For more information on childhood hunger in America, check out Food Network\u2019s documentary \u201cHunger Hits Home<\/a>.\u201d}<\/p>\n

Thankfully, there\u2019s a solution we can all be a part of! Every year, Share Our Strength organizes bakers from across the country to raise money for The Great American Bake Sale. Since 2003, more than 1 million people have participated in GABS, and have raised over $8 million!<\/p>\n
