August Recess Is Not a Time to Rest for Bread

Bread’s faith-based, anti-hunger grassroots network shines all year, but especially in August. [Image description: Photo of U.S. capitol and Bread for the World logo. ]( Dear Friend, I hope that you’re having a good summer. As you might imagine, things in Washington, D.C., are hot, humid, and muggy. When Congress leaves town for their annual summer recess, Bread for the World doesn’t slow down our advocacy – we just shift its geography. Bread’s faith-based, anti-hunger grassroots network shines all year, but especially in August. It’s one prong of our time-tested advocacy strategy: in-district relationship building + in-DC advocacy + smart policy analysis + media and community/coalition engagement = political will that leads to policy change. Our impact against hunger simply would not be possible without grassroots activism across the country. I invite you to take three minutes to [read my latest blog]( where you will learn about a Bread advocate named Makensie and how you, too, can get involved with in-district advocacy today. I hope you will join us. [Read Blog]( Sincerely, [Rev. Eugene Cho] Rev.
