For more than 20 years, movie superstar Jeff Bridges has worked hard to raise consciousness about the possibility of ending world hunger. In the early 1980s he helped start the End Hunger Network, and has inspired and enlisted the help of many celebrities to help convince the public and the governments of the world that we can end world hunger if we make it a priority. In recent years, the End Hunger Network has been focusing on hunger in America. In the 1980s, thanks to public will and government programs, hunger had been ended in America. But today more than 35 million Americans are hungry and 13 million are children. The End Hunger Network's goal is to end childhood hunger in America.
