We at The Hunger Project are always working on new and exciting ways to engage with you, our investors and activists. But we know the internet is a big place, so we’ve put together this list of some of the easiest and most creative ways for you to empower the development of communities around the world…from your computer!
Remember: every conversation you start brings all of us one step closer to a world of equal opportunity.

You are already on Facebook. Why not Facebook with us? We regularly post photos, stories and questions to keep our investors up-to-date on the latest and greatest. Like our page, suggest us to friends — you can even donate your Facebook cover photo! And if you want to start your own fundraiser (in honor of a birthday, holiday or just because), start a Cause!
