Blog Action Day 2008 - Poverty

Blog Action Day 2008 logo
Today is Blog Action Day, an annual event in which bloggers worldwide address a single issue. This year's topic is poverty.
If you're hungry, it's hard to think about anything else. It's hard to pay attention in school. It's hard to work or look for work. Hunger doesn't give up center stage easily.
It's been a long time since I've been that hungry, but there was a time. One day, I found a small job, painting an apartment for a few dollars and dinner. The meal was liver and onions, the first, last, and only time such a meal tasted so very good.
Joseph's Project brings food to people. We're a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, so you donations are tax-deductible. Join us at our Halloween Party on October 24th.
