Letter: Group works to fight poverty

By
Published:

With an increase in poverty, it is important to take action to turn this around. We know what to do to end poverty and the hunger that goes with it, effecting 1 in 5 children, and the 40 percent of Americans that can’t deal with a $400 emergency. We can request Congress to work to end hunger and poverty in the world’s richest country. One group, Results (results.org) educates volunteers to use their voices to do just that. Results is holding an introductory meeting at 10 a.m. Oct. 6 at the Vancouver Community Library. Together we can turn this around.

We encourage readers to express their views about public issues. Letters to the editor are subject to editing for brevity and clarity. Limit letters to 200 words (100 words if endorsing or opposing a political candidate or ballot measure) and allow 30 days between submissions. Send Us a Letter
