Schools in Action: London School of Economics

As part of the cooperation between LSE SU United Nations Society and the World Food Programme, a group of inspired students at the London School of Economics hit the streets of London on the occasion of World Food Week and World food Day 2009, for a week-long campaign to raise awareness about hunger, and funds for World Food Programme.

   Armed with a couple of red cups, a banner, brochures and great determination to end world hunger the group of LSE students raised the total of £800, enough to feed almost 5,000 hungry children.
