This part of the Hunger Notes website enables you to learn make a free (to you) contribution to assist hungry people. While we usually feature a hunger quiz, this time we just want you to watch an audio slide show on hunger in India. This is an excellent short introduction to hunger in children in India and generally. You will see what malnourished children look like. The video also helps you to understand basic ways in which malnutrition affects children including reduced weight, height and impaired ability to think, as well as the very high proportion (2/3s) of children in India that suffer from malnutrition. When you view this three-minute video, Hunger Notes will make a donation to assist people in crisis--see below for donation specifics.

When you watch this video, Hunger Notes will contribute $.01 to Partners in Health that provides health care to poor people, including addressing malnutrition, in Haiti, Peru, Rwanda, Lesotho, and other countries.

Hunger Notes thanks its contributors who have made this possible including Gloria Schaffer of Custer, South Dakota, Peace Lutheran Church of Gahanna, Ohio, Helen Colemna of Macomb, Mississippi, Williamsburg Community Chapel of Williamsburg, Virginia, Garner United Methodist Church of Garner, North Carolina, the Fourth Grade Sunday School class of the Second Baptist Church of Griffin, Georgia, and Harold Bolstad of Story City, Iowa.
