The Vermont Foodbank 4th Annual Hunger Conference: Understanding the Persistence of Hunger and Poverty
April 27, 2010
Sheraton Burlington, 870 Williston Road, Burlington, VT
The Vermont Foodbank’s annual Hunger Conference has become one of Vermont’s premier sources for learning about the issue of hunger as it affects our state and our communities. It is a valuable opportunity to share, discuss, and revise ideas regarding the important work of feeding our neighbors in need.
This year, we have decided to open the conference to the public. We would like to invite any and all interested parties to join us for lunch (including the keynote speaker) and afternoon workshop sessions. This will allow potential advocates, volunteers and donors to learn about the issue of hunger, and to get involved.
Additionally, we have teamed up with folks from the United Way of Chittenden County, and the Vermont Livable Wage Campaign to bring you workshops designed to address some of the causes of hunger.
We have secured anti-hunger leader and advocate Joel Berg as our keynote speaker. Mr. Berg is the Executive Director of the New York City Coalition Against Hunger. He served for eight years under the Clinton Administration in senior executive service positions for the US Department of Agriculture. In addition to a lunchtime keynote address, it is our plan to include Joel Berg in the afternoon workshops as well.
We sincerely hope that you will be able to join us for this important educational opportunity.
Once again, we will set up a Resource Room to allow local non-profits and businesses an opportunity to spread the word about their service. Registration for this, and general conference registration will begin on February 22nd. If you are interested in participating in the Resource Room, contact apayne@vtfoodbank.org.
