Children in developing countries reaching for the few food that they have. https://60milliongirls.wordpress.com/2011/08/17/free-the-children-report-on-the-drought-in-east-africa/
When discussing what we wanted to do for our groups global goal we all agreed we wanted reach and help as many people as we possibly could. This helped us decide that we wanted to end world hunger!! After doing extensive research about organizations and what they do to help end world hunger we narrowed it down to an organization called Stop Hunger Now.After doing more research about this organization we found out that we were could not go through with our plan to do a meal packaging event. We could not go through with the Stop Hunger Now organization because they did not have a establishment in Canada and as a few students in high school we would not be able to afford the shipping and the costs of the organization to bring the supplies over to us.
After this BIG obstacle we started all over again and began to research organization that is based out of Canada for easier access and connections. After looking at many organization we found called Free the Children. This organization helps subsistence farming communities, attain adequate amounts of nutritious food for short and long term.
Our goal through this company is to fundraise $200.00 to provide 2 month worth of healthy school meal, If we raise more than $200.00 we will donate the rest of it to another cause Free the Children supports that is helping end world hunger.
