September is Hunger Action Month. This
year,
The
Food Bank of Western Massachusetts will be hosting its second annual
Hunger Summit, a day-long
educational event aimed at member agencies within the emergency food
network, local non-profits, and community organizations concerned with
solutions to hunger in their neighborhoods.
This years guest speaker will be author Mark Winne,
who penned Closing the Food Gap. Winne has been a food activist
for years, and tells the story of how low-income Americans get their
food.
The event will include workshops dealing with best practices, how to
collaborate with other organizations, ways to achieve sustainable
change, and advocacy training. For more information, email
