NEW YORK CITY -- Diva Communications, a 3-time Emmy award-winning production company dedicated to raising awareness of current social issues, announces the airing of its new documentary, A PEACE OF BREAD, on ABC affiliated stations beginning November 20th.

 

 

 

"I am amazed by the optimism, creativity, and persistence of young faith leaders who are committed to ending a problem that, in this country at least, shouldn''t exist," says BREAD''s writer/producer Debra Gonsher Vinik. "I hope their energy and unflagging resolve causes us to commit to eradicating a problem that could happen to anyone."

 

 

 

There have been many documentaries exploring hunger issues but none quite like this. A PEACE OF BREAD is a compelling and heart-felt look at how young, and not so young, faith leaders are trying to address the huge part of this country''s population that are experiencing hunger. With faiths'' enduring mandate to "feed the hungry," A PEACE OF BREAD explores the work, not only of the steadfast caregivers in soup kitchens and food pantries, but of a new generation of anti-hunger activists, driven by their faith in a brighter future.

 

 

 

49 million Americans are hungry. One in every five children in this country is hungry. And, without the young activists of A PEACE OF BREAD addressing America''s hunger epidemic, these numbers would be astoundingly higher. Please join us in fighting hunger in our country, so that we can combat the problem before it worsens.
