![]() 5th Grade Hunger Project VISION: By 2020, every 5th Grade Class in America will sponsor 1 starving, homeless or poverty stricken child each year as part of the standard curriculum; providing life saving meals, shelter and medical care to needy children throughout the world." There are over 150,000 5th grade class rooms in the United States. If every 5th Grade class in America sponsored 1 starving, homeless and poverty stricken child, American children would help feed over 150,000 hungry children every year. The cost to sponsor 1 hungry child is only $360 per year or $36 per school year, per 5th grade class. That's only $1 a month per 5th Grade student! Individuals can only do so much. But when you mobilize a group of people into action...there's no limit to our ability to change the world and make a difference. By saving the life of another child, our 5th graders will experience their own power change the world. kids will learn something about charity, responsibility, compassion, about their global community, giving each 5th grade child an opportunity to make a substantial difference in the life of another child. Throughout the school year, students will write to their sponsored child, learning about another culture while practicing their own letter writing and communication skills. This is a win-win project for the hungry, the students and the teachers. How can I help the 5th Grade Hunger Project?
