And you know something else neat?

If you start your google search here, you donate food to a hungry person every time you do a search:

I liked the idea behind the hunger site. Admit I have not clicked it as often as I thought i would. Simply saying it cost me nothing is not enough. Just would like to know how much of a corporate donation goes to feed the hungry. If you have answered that previously please point me to the answer. What percentage of a corporate donation goes to provide food? It is possible that both corporations and individuals could be misled by this sort of thing and I consider the question to be legitimate. Am glad someone asked it since I had never even questioned the concept.

<<Approximately 24,000 people die each day from hunger or hunger-related causes.>>

Now E, being a compassionate conservative I click the Hunger Site first think each day, then I Save the Rain Forest.

What gets my goat is 100,000 kids go blind each year from lack of vitamin A. Seed companies in the US have come up with yellow rice, high in vitamin A. Would solve the problem. They aren't even looking for a profit as it's priced below cost or given way. The damn tree huggers are blocking it's use as it's a GMO.
