GLOBAL HUNGER AND FOOD INSECURITY INITIATIVE
More than one billion people — one sixth of the world's population — suffer from chronic hunger. Without enough food, adults struggle to work and children struggle to learn. Global food supplies must increase by an estimated 50 percent to meet expected demand in the next 20 years. Advancing sustainable agricultural-led growth increases the availability of food, keeps food affordable, and raises the incomes of the poor. MORE >>>

JANUARY - The new year is always symbolized by a baby, so January is "Baby Month." Donate items for newborns to toddlers including baby formula, food, and cereal; diapers and pull-ups; and wipes.
Residents are also reminded to take advantage of "buy one-get one free" offers from area grocery stores, by donating the second item to the 365 Food Drive.
In January 2010, the Broward County Board of County initiated the year long 365 Food Drive to meet the increased demand
