[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you all so much for sharing what sounds like some very hard memories.  I grew up wealthy, and was surrounded by others with plenty (went to one of the big 3 here in DC; no one had any experiences like these).  In reading these stories, I feel almost appalled at the money that my family, and now I, have, and the things we had and did which seemed normal at the time, but now seems like indulgences.  I can tell you that I am doing some research first thing tomorrow on how to donate my time and money to people who have life experiences like many of you.  While my family worked hard for their wealth, a lot if it was luck, and it easily could have gone the opposite way.  I guess I am guilty of taking things like food, let alone any and as much food as I want, for granted.[/quote]

PP, glad to hear it.  I suggest that you focus your research on programs that get food to children.  When school is out for the summer, students who get breakfast and lunch at school lose that opportunity.[/quote]
