Hunger Alleviation

The District 410-E Hunger Alleviation Portfolio coordinator is DC Carol Browne.

Many clubs participate in projects that help feed hungry people. I conducted a survey, with electronic feedback, to ask clubs what projects they do, and if they need my input to help with anything. Based on this, and questions that have arisen in the past, I attach some documents which may help.

PDF - Information on food intake and immunity.

Excel document - The cost of energy and protein.

DC Carol has completed the first of the books that she has been working on. The intention is that clubs can share with organisations who they help out with food. Better planning of meals and menus usually results in cost savings, and usually makes the menu healthier. This means the money for food can go further.

DC Carol is working on the second book which has ideas for dishes and recipes.
