my first blog ever

May 2, 2007

My first blog ever.

I'm trying to find my way here..the notion that my thoughts..my words are "public" the second I hit the "publish" tab is stopping my flow!

But..I have much to say and share about an organization I started just 3 years ago, Family-to-Family (www.family-to-family.org). We started helping a few families in Pembroke, IL. , a rural community about 1 hour south of Chicago after I had read a piece in The NY Times about the area and how families there where living in "third world like conditions". The piece spoke of the overwhelming amount of hunger and poverty right here in the U.S ...and we all now know it to be true after seeing the outpouring of thousands of poor New Orleans families after Katrina hit.
The idea that so many families are starving..so many kids malnourished right here in our country...that this can exist is obscene.
The reality is that millions of families can not make it to the end of each month with enough food to eat.
I had to do something.
