FEEDING THE HUNGRY IN A LAND OF PLENTY

On our SUNDAY Atlanta's Morning News (Nov 22 8:00 AM), we profile two remarkable people called to feed the hungry... one young woman went halfway around the world to feed a few ... another went down the block to feed a million ... Atlanta Community Food Bank Executive Director Bill Bolling says his work is far from done and demand from the food bank is at an all time high. Find out how to help at acfb.org. I hope you'll consider making a contribution. These folks have a way of making a food donation you make at the grocery store or a cash donation go a long way.

Angie Ryan is self-described as an ordinary young woman from Mississippi, but her story is far from ordinary. After graduating from North Georgia College and State University in Dahlonega, she fulfilled a lifelong dream of going to Africa. How she wound up in Uganda helping arrange food for a family of six orphans is as amazing as it is touching. See some pictures from her visit to Patongo below. More details on her website (when it's up) at littlebrowneyes.org.
