Welcome to HoosiersEndingHunger!

Welcome to HoosiersEndingHunger! This blog has been created as a forum for individuals and groups in Indiana who are working on or interested in issues related to hunger, either global or domestic/local. (Anyone else is also welcome to check out what we're up to!) Discussion, debate and information about these issues is encouraged; personal attacks/flames are not. Please feel free to post invitations and updates for events that you or your group are hosting that relate to hunger issues as well as any written information and articles on the topic that you think might be of interest. Let's shine a light in the darkness of hunger and poverty!
