16.2 million children, in the U.S. alone, struggle with hunger. On the first Monday of the month, we go without food and send the money we would have spent to organizations that help feed children. Please consider joining us.

I ran across this charity during my initial search while compiling a list by state and it has stuck with me for over a month. I know that when we think of hungry kids in the U.S., Alaska is probably the last state to jump to mind, but the photos from their site and the number of meals they serve on a monthly basis really impressed me. They've served more than 40,000 meals since 2009.

If you have time, please look through their site ---> CMM
Or if you are in a hurry, you can donate your First Monday money to the Children's Meal Mission by clicking this link ---> http://www.cmmalaska.org/support/

As always, if you have a charity to suggest, please feel free to email me at info@firstmondayclub.org , post on our Facebook page, or leave a suggestion on the guestbook page.
