This document discusses how hunger affects physical, mental, and social development in children. It notes that 50 million people in the US experience hunger insecurely, including 16 million children. It then introduces an app called FoodCircles that allows users to purchase meals from local restaurants for $1, with 100% of that dollar amount donated to feed hungry children. FoodCircles aims to provide an easy and sustainable way to address childhood hunger by leveraging existing dining out behaviors. It discusses partnerships with non-profits and restaurants, and states that so far the app has 25 local restaurant partners, over 800 users, and has generated over $10,000 to fight hunger.
