More information
Share Our Strength® began in the basement of a row house on Capitol Hill in 1984, in response to the ‘84-‘85 famine in Ethiopia. Brother and sister Bill and Debbie Shore started the organization with the belief that everyone has a strength to share in the global fight against hunger and poverty, and that in these shared strengths lie sustainable solutions. That same principle remains solidly in place as does the tremendous support Share Our Strength receives from the culinary and foodservice communities and from our earliest corporate partners, including American Express, Tyson, Sysco and Brown-Forman. Today we focus these strengths on making No Kid Hungry® a reality in America.
