This summer, some children in our area will go to bed hungry. Yes, it is hard to believe that this is possible in the richest country in the world. Because children will not be in school this summer, they will not have access to the meal programs. Hill Country Community Ministries feeds over 300 families each month which adds up to $360,000 worth of food each year. This need increases during the summer months causing HCCM to experience food shortages. The Stomp-Out-Hunger Campaign is a cooperative church partnership that seeks to fully stock the summer food shelves at HCCM by collecting food. Will you join with us for the 2008 Stomp-Out-Hunger Campaign?
