Dine Out for No Kid Hungry




I'm wanting to share something that has been on my heart for years, ever since I was a little kid...Its child hunger. No I do not mean in third world countries either, I mean right here. Let me make one statement first. I do not ever feel that its a bad idea to help third world countries. However, we have hundreds who are hungry here in America. It bothers me that we are so focused on feeding others outside of our country, while kids are going hungry here in America.

They go to school starving, wondering when their meal is coming. How sad is that? I look at my kids and think how sad it would be if they had to go hungry. I think the problem has grown so massive, that its hard to contain it. According to No Kid Hungry 1 out of 5 children go hungry...That is way to many!  We need programs out there to teach parents how to cook nutritional items, we need programs that will help those in need.

So many families go hungry, or are in need of some help. You may be wondering what you can do to help...Here are several ways :

No Kid Hungry is doing a Dine Out No Kid hungry campaign. Go to this website Dine out No Kid Hungry and check to see if any of your local restaurants are participating in this. If they are go for it and donate to No Kid Hungry, for the prevention in Child Hunger.


  1. If your a blogger, please write a post about this and spread the word about Child hunger, and how people can help and donate to this worthy cause.  
  2. Donate to your local food bank. That will be used in giving food to those in need.
  3. Also do not forget that you might have a neighbor next door that needs help with food, or even someone in your community. Do not hesitate to help out. Do not wait till Christmas to help out....Do it now, and you'll save lives. 


Come on lets spread the word and help stop Child hunger, and hunger in general. Not just in Third world countries but our own country.

  3. Anonymous.. Maybe you should learn to spell. The only thing I noticed that is wrong is hundred should be hundreds and restaurants doesn't have an apostrophe, but it didn't take away from anything she had to say and the message she is trying to get out. No one is perfect, not even spell check.

    Way to go Alyssa! I never understood why we were feeding other countries when so many in our own country needed it just the same if not more. I too have no problem with the US helping other countries and am proud that Americans have the heart and finances to help those countries in need, but I really believe we should take care of things at home first.

  4. There was a very real perception that bi-racial was much worse for the white than it was for the person of color. The liberal culture screamed racism when there is a very reasonable explanation for this reality::::
    In this white punishment known as the United States the person of color has already adopted the disfavors/temptations intended for another race. But by associating/mating with a person of color the white is newly adopting the disfavors of another culture.
    And this is the reason why people of color are not welcome in the United States. The gods control everything:::The perception they want to create, the thoughts they want you to have.
    People of color can't recover from absorbing the temptations from two cultures. And why they become more and more like so many blacks in America:::Veterans at absorbing the temptations of two cultures.
    To further illustrate this is why California's educational system/funding was ranked #1 when California was white:::Education being the basis of the affluent economic system. Now even public higher education has become unaffordable.

    Ronald Reagan spent the communist block into submission with defense buildup, and in the process increased the National debt from $1 trillion in 1980 to $6 trillion when he left office.
    W charged both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars to the national debt, honest numbers to come.
    The gods used W to initiate the "Great Recession" with deliberate legislation/regulation changes, allowing the sub-prime fiasco and corporate irresponsibility/criminal behavior which led to the multi-trillion dollar stimulous package, pocketted by Republican friends and donors::::$5 trillion charged to the National credit card.
    This corruption is one element of evil in the party of good. War mongering is another.
    Damned if you do, Damned if you don't::::With the Democrats you subscribe to social decay via liberlism, which WILL lead to the Apocalypse. Republicans are being used by the gods to bankrupt the United States, ultimately motivating people to the point of "desperation prayer" once anarchy presides::::Punishment designed to correct your behavior.
