Will Text for Food
"Operation No Kid Hungry" is a new campaign to help end childhood hunger.

Sponsored by the national anti-hunger group Share Our Strength, it responds to President-elect Obama's commitment to end childhood hunger by 2015.

Here are two ways Utahns can help.

1. Text the word "SHARE" to 20222 on your mobile device to donate $5. AT&T will match text donations up to $100,000.

2. Sponsor a food drive at work, school or in your community.

Hi Kathy,

Thank you so much for your support! It's people like you who really make a difference, and together we can all help end childhood hunger.

I encourage everyone to not only spread the word, but to donate in any way you can - either with a $5 text donation or with food.

Best,
Kari Rippetoe
