ONE OF THE BIG ISSUES RELATED TO HUNGER IN NEW MEXICO IS THE LARGE NUMBER OF CHILDREN AFFECTED BY IT. IT’S AMONG THE TOPICS DISCUSSED DURING A TWO DAY END HUNGER SUMMIT NOW UNDERWAY IN ALBUQUERQUE.
SONYA WARWICK WITH THE ROADRUNNER FOOD BANK SAYS HUNGRY CHILDREN FACE SOME REAL OBSTACLES. SHE SAYS IT’S DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO ATTEND SCHOOL AND LEARN IF THEY DON’T HAVE A BASIC NECESSITY LIKE FOOD.
THE SUMMIT GOES THROUGH THURSDAY AFTERNOON AT THE ALBUQUERQUE MARRIOTT ON LOUISIANA.
