Poetry X Hunger is bringing a world of poets and their poems to the anti-hunger cause. We are using poetry to raise awareness, compassion and funding. And, speaking of funding, by holding poetry fundraisers, we magically turn poetry into food. In recent years, we've raised thousands of US dollars for anti-hunger organizations.
