"It was one of the most brutal feelings I've ever had," says Maria Rose Belding.
This sparked an idea. Working with friends and colleagues, they came up with the Means Database - a website to connect food businesses, like restaurants and caterers, with charities and non-profit organisations that distributed food to hungry people. The database now operates across 48 states in the United States, as well as Canada and there has been interest in Europe.
The World Food Programme does more than distribute food in places affected by war and famine, it also works to improve access to food in areas where there is no conflict.Ms Guarnieri says the WFP helps support more than 40 nations around the world with school meals, pointing to evidence that by providing a nutritious meal "you can bring children to school," she explains.
