Script for PSA

Did you know that in 2009 over 50 million Americans did not know where there next meal would come from? This translates to around 33 million adults and 17 million children.

How can we fix this? One way to help solve this critical issue is to follow Brazil's No-Hunger program and incorporate locally grown vegetables and gardens to help feed those in need. One great aspect of this program is that it also provides nutrition to these families, something that many soup kitchens cannot provide due to high costs of foods.

With the help of financial aid and local public schools, this can be done and also help teach the next generation of students about helping others and also eating well. 

Belo-Horizonte's Zero-Hunger Program and it's Success

This video will describe the gist of my project.

Hunger, Obesity and Nutrition: How to Incorporate Environmentally Friendly Gardens to Help End Hunger and Obesity

My Capstone Project is based around the idea that nobody should have to worry about where their next meal is coming from. I want to help establish "People's Restaurants", based on how the Brazilian city of Belo Horizonte used these soup-kitchens to help drop the rates of poverty and malnutrition/hunger on the streets. My project touches on the Triple Bottom Line point of Equality.
