Making a difference in the fight against global hunger is just a click away. Visit The Hunger Site (www.thehungersite.com), click the "Give Free Food" button, and the site sponsors will donate money to hunger-fighting organizations Mercy Corps and America's Second Harvest. Roughly 24,000 people die from hunger or hunger-related causes every day, down from 35,000 ten years ago. Your efforts can help lower this number even more.
