This is Hunger

MAZON’s groundbreaking project, This Is Hunger, encourages all of us to embark on a journey that will challenge beliefs and myths about who struggles with hunger in America and why. This powerful, immersive program centers stories of real people who have struggled with hunger. Until we recognize the profound prevalence of hunger, we will never rally the political will to end it.

Over its 16-month tour, MAZON engaged 90 hosts organizations at over 70 stops in 30 states and DC, and welcomed more than 15,000 visitors, including a number of local, state, and federal elected officials.
