FACTS: The truth behind the suffering:
* One sixth of the world's population in developing nations is malnourished, including 200 million children.
* Every eight seconds a child dies of malnutrition.
* Every day, 30,500 children under 5 years old die of preventable diseases or malnutrition.
* This year in Sudan, due to widespread crop failure, an estimated 2 million people will require food assistance in order to survive.
* Every 43 seconds in America, a child is born into poverty. Almost 80 percent of poor children live in working households.
