 60.4% of Salem-Keizer’s

39,419 School Children

WERE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE OR REDUCED PRICE

LUNCH AT SCHOOL LAST YEAR.

SOMETIMES IT WAS THEIR ONLY MEAL OF THE DAY.

Join Women Ending Hunger, an auxiliary of

Marion-Polk Food Share for the great

FOOD FOR THOUGHT STAND-IN,

5:15-5:45 p.m., on FIRST WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 5, 2012

Help us stretch a line of 3900 empty plates across Downtown Salem to bring our community’s attention to the fact that

CHILDHOOD HUNGER LASTS A LIFETIME.

Hungry kids miss more school and have more health and behavioral problems

than other children.  When they fall behind, they are too often left behind.

THIS IS A QUIET CATASTROPHE THAT WE CAN PREVENT.

STAND WITH US!

Please call Kat Daniel, Women Ending Hunger at Marion-Polk Food Share (503) 581-3855 ext. 322 to sign up for a place in line. 

You can also help us by spreading the word to family, friends, and co-workers!
