Description

1 in 3 college students face food insecurity nationally. In 2010, while an undergrad at UCLA, Rachel Sumekh noticed her fellow students were going hungry. She immediately sprung into action and founded Swipe Out Hunger, an organization that allows university students to donate their unused meal points to their peers and community members who are struggling with hunger. Today, they’re on more than 130 college campuses.
Listen to learn more about Rachel’s mission to eradicate hunger on college campuses one swipe at a time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
