This holiday season, while many of us gather with loved ones around full tables, millions of children face a very different reality: empty plates and uncertainty about their next meal. As a World Vision Advocate and supporter, we need your help to raise awareness and action about children facing hunger.

Here's how YOU can make a difference:

1. Join us on social

Post a picture of yourself holding an empty plate on social media using the hashtag #EmptyPlates and tagging @WorldVisionUSA. Then, challenge your friends, church, and even elected officials to do the same! Here are some sample posts:

1. No child should have an #EmptyPlates this Thanksgiving. Yet millions will. That’s why I’m joining the @WorldVisionUSA #EmptyPlates Challenge to spread the word and help end child hunger. I nominate _________ to post a selfie using #EmptyPlates. Join in and learn more at https://worldvisionadvocacy.org/emptyplates.

   2. #EmptyPlates is what millions of children will have this Thanksgiving. Child hunger is increasing for the first time in a generation.  I think God wants more for kids than #EmptyPlates, so I’m joining the @WorldVisionUSA #EmptyPlate Challenge to spread the word. I nominate ________ to post a selfie using #EmptyPlates. Join in and learn more at https://worldvisionadvocacy.org/emptyplates.
