Hunger | Periscope

Today over 800 million people go to bed every night hungry. Every year, over 24,000 of those people will die from hunger and problems related to hunger. Many of them will be women and children. 

This plane is dropping over 16 tons of grain to starving people in the Sudan. The drop is sponsored by the World Food Program.
