We all remember the Biblical parable about teaching a man to fish so he can provide for himself and his family. Two thousand years later, we can do exactly this. My dad taught me how to fish in a pond back home on the farm in West Virginia. Even as a seven-year-old, I noticed that we not only got a couple of day’s worth of yummy trout for our efforts but my papa, a former Marine with many battle scars, seemed to relax after an afternoon at the pond. You can gift a $49 fishing kit in a loved one’s name or set up a recurring monthly donation at Action Against Hunger ( ActionAgainstHunger.org), which feeds over 7 million people each year. Go fish!

Help those TO help themselves
We all
remember the Biblical parable about teaching a man to fish so he can provide
for himself and his family. Two thousand years later, we can do exactly this.
My dad taught me how to fish in a pond back home on the farm in West Virginia
and, even as a 7 year-old, I could not help but notice that we not only got a
couple day’s worth of yummy trout for our efforts but my papa, a former Marine
with many battle scars to show for it, seemed so relaxed after an afternoon at
the pond. You can gift in a loved one’s name a $49 fishing kit or up to $100
for a daily goat to Action against Hunger (www, ActionAgainstHunger.org), which
feeds over 7 million, people each year. Go fish!
