Hunger is the painstaking discomfort caused by a lack of nutritious food. Each year, it kills more people than Malaria, Tuberculosis, and HIV/AIDS, making it the number 1 heath risk in the world. However, hunger is the world’s greatest solvable problem.
Have you ever heard of the poverty trap? The poverty trap prevents people from doing anything productive because they are too poor to afford food, which would fuel their bodies and help them liberate themselves from this epidemic.
How can we solve hunger?
There are two easy ways to help: you can go to Free Rice or The Hunger Site to make a true difference in someone’s life.
FreeRice.com is a website that donates 10 grains of rice or the equivalent to hungry people when a trivia question is answered correctly. This site allows people to learn while feeding others and has a wide range of educational topics such as English vocabulary, basic math, geography, languages, human anatomy, and chemistry to name but a few. It is funded through the World Food Programme of the United Nations and is charitably sponsored by organizations that pay for the donated rice.
There is also a website called The Hunger Site, on which you can click a simple button once every day and feed hungry people, and better yet, THE CLICK IS FREE. At the top of the page, you’ll find 8 additional causes such as Diabetes, Autism, and Literacy, all waiting for you to click on them and show your support.
Last year, Walking Dead writer Robert Kirkman’s comic imprint Skybound and the Hero Initiative charity gave over 100 blank Walking Dead #100 covers to assorted comic-industry notables for them to sketch their own undead-oriented illustrations.
Today it was announced that the covers will be on display together at a free, one-night-only, Hero Initiative-benefiting show and auction held at L.A.’s Gusford gallery on Friday, May 31.
Four of the covers will be auctioned off during the soiree — two on eBay and another pair on-site — including one that will be created in the course of the evening by artist Todd Nauck (Invincible Universe). Nauck will be joined at the event by fellow sketch-cover contributors Sina Grace and Jason Reeves. The remainder of the covers will be auctioned off via eBay beginning June 4.
The Hero Initiative is a non-profit dedicated to providing medical aid and financial support to comic-book artists in need.
