Shoot a video - fight hunger

Thanks to Britt over at Have Fun/Do Good for telling us about a great opportunity for all you aspiring movie producers out there.  Enter the Walk The World Viral Video Contest being put on by FightHunger.org.

They are looking for the best video that can be distributed virally to help in the global fight against hunger - the problem that may be the root cause for so many of our problems we face in the world today.

This is all part of the U.N.'s World Food Programme, an organization which is no stranger to the use of video.  Here is their video collection on YouTube.

Also on their site is a compelling link that takes us to Darfur.  I spent some time with this link and listened to the people who live there and to others who are working their to help one of the most troubled regions on our planet.  Spend a few minutes here when you can.

Other links to learn more about hunger and what we can do about it:

Fighting hunger is a never ending battle.  Try to find a way to do something to fight hunger throughout the year.
