Hi everyone - sorry I'm late in joining today! I just wanted to share the "Next Shift" campaign that launched this month from the group Closing the Hunger Gap. The campaign aims to expand hunger relief efforts beyond food distribution towards strategies that promote social justice and address the root causes of hunger. It feels especially relevant to this conversation!https://thehungergap.org/next-shift/

Please drop your questions in Q&A or raise your hand for Q&A

Since we are running short on time, please drop any announcements from your group in the chat!

Awesome and inspiring work, Taylor!
