About
The Food Basket Challenge is a campaign to generate conversation about poverty issues and solutions.
From Sept. 13th to Sept. 19th, 2012 a group of twenty-six diverse and high-profile people attempted to live using what they received in a food bank basket, a few basic staples and small food budget of just $5 for one week. They made the choice to take this Challenge in solidarity with those who do not have the choice, and for whom poverty is not a game -- it's a daily reality.
The first Food Basket Challenge occurred fall 2011. Thirteen people took the Challenge and thousands more tuned in to follow their stories. The honesty and insight shared to the community was deeply personal, creating a powerful forum for having hard conversations.
