  Kids Can Make a Difference Kids Can Make A Difference® (KIDS), an educational program for middle- and high school students, focuses on the root causes of hunger and poverty, the people most affected, solutions, and how students can help. The major goal is to stimulate the students to take some definite follow-up actions as they begin to realize that one person can make a difference.
  Feeding America The mission of America's Second Harvest is to create a hunger-free America by distributing food and grocery products through a nationwide network of certified affiliates, increase public awareness of domestic hunger, and advocate for policies that benefit America's hungry. More than 200 food banks and food-rescue organizations participate in the program. 
  Feeding Minds Fighting Hunger These lessons have been developed as a starting point for teachers to introduce the topic of world hunger to their students. Lessons that are adapted and developed locally to meet local problems, interests and culture are usually most effective and can then be used to help each community address its own particular problems. Can be adapted with a service-learning component.
  Kid to Kid Kid to Kid, a project of the Children's Hunger Relief Fund, provides children with the opportunity to help other children who lack food, clothing and shelter. Includes project ideas, resources and tools, and a gallery of examples of kids helping kids.
  Reach out to SOVA This 31 page online kit, written by Cathryn Berger Kaye, includes materials to assist teachers in a series of lessons that involve student leadership of a canned food drive. The drive's goal is the stocking of the local food pantry on a year-round basis. These materials are easily adapted to meet the needs of local agencies and people in the community.
