The year-round campaign encourages individuals and communities to get involved in solving a widespread problem that too often goes unnoticed. “One in five children in America struggle with hunger – that’s nearly seventeen million children. I was one of those children; I was the one in five,” said Davis. “I am honored to join The Safeway Foundation and the Entertainment Industry Foundation to increase awareness and raise funds to help end childhood hunger.”
