Yes, I want to be a part of BEAT Hunger '08, a historic grassroots movement to bring the issues of hunger and poverty to the forefront of the 2008 elections.

Join the Bread for the World Election Action Team against Hunger 2008 (BEAT Hunger '08) and sign up to receive regular updates and information on upcoming election opportunities near you such as town hall meetings. Note: after signing up, we will subscribe you to a moderated regional newsletter where you will receive updates about candidate town hall meetings and other public events near you. Though the volume of alerts you receive will vary, you can reasonably expect to receive between 0-4 emails per week.

BEAT Hunger '08 is a historic grassroots movement to bring the issues of hunger and poverty to the forefront of the 2008 elections. But it will only work if you and others stand up to demand real solutions to injustice. Will you join us?
