["SCHRAMM, Richard" <Rich.Schramm@abc-usa.org>]

American Baptist News Service (Valley Forge, Pa. 3/4/05)--Bread for the
World, the Christian antihunger organization supported by many American
Baptist individuals and churches, has launched its 2005 campaign "Make
Hunger History."

The current focus, like all of Bread for the World's campaigns over the
past 30 years, asks individuals and their churches to participate in an
"Offering of Letters" in which correspondence advocating action is sent
to congressional representatives.

The 2005 campaign is being coordinated with America's Second Harvest,
MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger, the End Hunger Network and other
organizations.	Bread for the World also is one of 11 inaugural members
of the ONE Campaign, a coalition committed to addressing AIDS, extreme
poverty and hunger.
