Bread for the World is a collective Christian voice urging our nation's decision makers to end hunger at home and abroad. Every year Bread for the World invites churches and groups across the country to take up a nationwide Offering of Letters to Congress seeking God's justice for hungry people. These letters are effective, and you can play a part. Attend one of the workshops planned in our area to get the tools and knowledge you need to make a difference. Join Bread for the World this year as they press Congress to reform U.S. foreign assistance to make our money more effective at reducing hunger.
