	GCNF’s Change Our World Please join the Global Child Nutrition Foundation (GCNF) in helping to bring school feeding programs to developing countries by participating in the second annual Change Our World campaign. Our friends at Schwan’s Food Service undertook the initial launch last year. This year, in an effort to expand the campaign, they have turned it over to the GCNF leadership. The Change Our World campaign raises both awareness about global child hunger and funds to support GCNF’s efforts in developing sustainable school feeding programs around the world. It is an important source of funding for GCNF and may be used to help local hunger efforts as well. This campaign will be conducted each year culminating in the recognition of Global Child Nutrition Month in April. Participation in the campaign provides a unique opportunity for you to demonstrate the importance of social responsibility and help increase awareness of global child hunger issues. Please email gcnf@schoolnutrition.org for various ways you can partner and support GCNF through the Change Our World campaign. Visit www.changeourworldonline.org
