Beth Kowalski from the Neville Public Museum joins John and guest co-host Vanessa Moran to discuss the extended hours they've implemented for spring break. Her visit is another great reminder of this great resource in our community. From ever-changing displays to club meetings and more, we LOVE the Neville and Beth! Then, our guest host, Vanessa Moran, takes time to talk about the charity she works with, Feed My Starving Children. Her work with the organization is how we met her last year. Every year, millions of children die from preventable causes such as pneumonia, diarrhea, malaria, and undernutrition. Hunger is still causing nearly half of deaths in children under 5 years old. Vanessa says over 6000 children die every day from hunger. Just children, 18 and under. Click the link if you'd like to make a difference.
