Dole, McGovern propose global lunch program Former Senators George McGovern and Bob Dole have forwarded to the administration a proposal to establish a global school lunch program. They believe the program will reduce hunger and disease, strengthen U.S. foreign policy goals, and improve farmer and rancher income.

Farmers help feed the hungry Despite the abundance of food, hunger remains a reality for many.
Matching excess food with need is the mission of the Food and Grain Bank, a part of the humanitarian relief organization, Heart to Heart International. If we just take the blinders off, we'll see others in need. Your dollars, your grain or other commodity, and your network of contacts. Your funds, in-kind gifts, free services and alternative resources will be used wisely. Your time and your talents.
