Hablemos sobre un tema que nos afecta a todos: el desperdicio de alimentos y la inseguridad alimentaria.En este episodio nuestra host Sofía Rivas habla con Stephanie De La Hoz, directora de programas en Move for Hunger; organización sin fines de lucro que lucha contra el hambre. ¿Sabías que en Estados Unidos se desperdicia el 40% de los alimentos mientras 1 de cada 5 niños pasa hambre? Move for Hunger nace para combatir estos problemas. Lo que comenzó como una idea sencilla—rescatar la comida que las familias dejaban al mudarse—se ha convertido en una red nacional que moviliza a más de 1,300 empresas para recolectar y transportar alimentos que, de otro modo, acabarían en la basura.
