Save The Children
As the world's leading independent child rights organization, Save the Children's mission is to inspire breakthroughs in the way the world treats children, and to achieve immediate and lasting change in their lives. One of the poorest countries in the world, Bangladesh, has succeeded in reducing preventable maternal and child death.
However, chronic hunger continues to be a persistent problem. Malnutrition is the underlying cause in one third of global child mortality, and has lifelong consequences for children who survive. Malnourished children are more likely to become ill and perform poorly in school.
Save the Children, along with its community partners, have been saving the lives of mothers and children in Bangladesh for more than three decades. Roger Mooking spent several days meeting the mothers and children who rely on the health and nutrition services of Save the Children's MaMoni Project in Bangladesh.
Second Harvest Toronto Taste 2012
Thank you to everyone who came out to support Toronto Taste on Sunday, May 27, 2012 at the Royal Ontario Museum.
We are projecting to net over $335,000 which will enable Second Harvest to rescue and deliver enough excess food to provide over 670,000 meals for those who are hungry in our city. Thanks to everyone who supported us at Toronto Taste!
It's the most coveted culinary event of the year. A gastronomic adventure showcasing over 60 of Toronto's top chefs and 30 beverage purveyors, all coming together to celebrate the love of food and support Second Harvest. One ticket to Toronto Taste provides 250 meals to Torontonians in need and this year the event aimed to raise enough funds to provide 700,000 meals for Toronto's hungry.
