More than 150 Bread for the World advocates gathered at Light of the World Christian Church for a powerful evening of learning, testimonies, action, and commitment during Nourish Our Future: Seeds of Hope for Indiana’s Children. We learned from experts about the critical role of the #ChildTaxCredit, heard personal stories of its impact on families in Indiana, and took action, urging Sen. Todd Young to lead in protecting and expanding this vital support for children and families. Thank you to everyone who joined us, both in person and virtually, for your commitment to ending hunger in Indiana, across the U.S., and abroad.

As we reflect during Hispanic Heritage Month, let us lift up a prayer for farmworkers and outdoor laborers, many of whom are Latino/a. They bear the weight of the heat and changing climate to provide for their families and communities, often without the protections they deserve. Let’s join together in prayer, asking for safer working conditions and dignity for those who feed our nation through their hard work. Follow the link to access more in Spanish. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eUyyzvmf ----- Durante el Mes de la Herencia Hispana, te invitamos a unirte en oración por los trabajadores agrícolas y al aire libre, muchos de ellos latinos/as. Ellos soportan el calor y el cambio climático para sostener a sus familias y comunidades, muchas veces sin las protecciones que merecen. Oremos juntos por condiciones de trabajo más seguras y el respeto que se merecen quienes alimentan a nuestro país con su esfuerzo.

The wait is over—applications are now open for the Summer 2025 #ZeroHunger Internship! The Zero Hunger Internship is a full-time, paid summer leadership development opportunity for college students and recent graduates and is a program of the Congressional Hunger Center. It is designed for individuals who are interested in federal anti-hunger policy. Interns work at global and domestic anti-hunger organizations in Washington, D.C., for 10 weeks. In addition to participating in leadership development training, participants also attend a Summer Seminar Series about hunger, public policy, and advocacy. The program allows undergraduate students or individuals who have graduated December 2024 or after a paid opportunity for on-the-job training and a robust learning experience. Candidates apply to the Zero Hunger Program and are matched by the Congressional Hunger Center with internship placements in Washington, D.C. Zero Hunger Interns also complete a research project on a hunger topic of their choosing and present their findings to stakeholders of the Hunger Center at the end of the program. The dual goals of the program are to build the capacity of organizations fighting hunger and to develop interns into anti-hunger leaders who will return to their communities ready to advocate for a hunger-free future. Get started today by reading our guide for prospective applicants, covering everything you need on how to apply, including selection criteria, timelines, benefits, and much more. https://lnkd.in/eCwFMMYT

While Latin America and the Caribbean have made strides against hunger, significant challenges remain. In 2022, 37.5% of the population faced moderate to severe food insecurity. From climate change to political instability, multiple factors are contributing to this issue.
