Share Our Strength's Taste of the Nation is the nation's premier culinary benefit dedicated to ending childhood hunger in America.

According to Chef Timothy Cipriano at New Haven Public Schools "In New Haven there are too many children who rely on school meals as their ONLY nutrition of the day. When schools are closed for vacation or the summer these children lack access to nutritious foods! New Haven is not alone in this predicament. Every town in the State of Connecticut has children that are HUNGRY."

Taste of The Nation, New Haven, 2010 was simply amazing!

What a wonderful way to participate in ending childhood hunger!
