RESOLUTION SUPPORTING MINNESOTA SHARES FOR HUNGER DAY
WHEREAS, proper nutrition is a most basic need of human growth and

world; and
WHEREAS, hunger is a problem that transcends geographical and political
boundaries, and is present in virtually every county, state and city; and
WHEREAS, Minnesota Shares for Hunger is seeking to aid this massive
challenge by calling on citizens throughout Minnesota to participate in a
voluntary fast and to donate the material equivalent of those meals to UNICEF
and CARE on an international basis, and to community food shelves on a state
basis.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center to urge citizen support of Minnesota Shares for Hunger Day
and to encourage the people of Brooklyn Center to participate by contributing
to UNICEF, CARE or more locally to Community Emergency Assistance Project
