Do you know that every day, more than 16,000 children die from hunger-related causes–i.e. one child every five seconds?
In the developing world, more than 1.2 billion people currently live below the international poverty line, earning less than $1 per day?

In India alone, 7000 people die every day!! (i.e. 5 per minute)

While these are statistics, which we all must be aware of, there are very few individuals who are actually doing anything about it.

Bhookh.com (Bhookh means Hunger)- India’s first online social activism site, gives internet users an oppoortunity to give free food to hungry children.
