BIO-319Hunger and the Global Environment Project Overview
Purpose: To research and plan an activity to help end hunger locally or globally and discuss the
rationale for involvement from a Christian World View.
Instructions: Incorporate a Christian World View into a project related to Hunger, Food
Insecurity, or Malnutrition. Over the next several weeks, you will have the opportunity to
research and become involved in an organization of your choice related to this topic. Monetary
donations are not a requirement of this assignment. Be sure you are working with a reputable
organization and are safe while participating (i.e., donating food or money to the homeless on the
street, while by yourself, or in an unsafe neighborhood, is not a safe choice). In addition, there
are many organizations for which you may volunteer without the need of a car.

Spiritual Life. This partnership with St. Vincent DePaul gives GCU students
the opportunity to serve the hungry and homeless of Phoenix on Monday
nights and Thursday mornings weekly. Students carpool or ride together in
GCU fleet vans, volunteering their time, hard-work, and presence to minister
to the physical and spiritual needs of those 500 plus individuals who seek out
assistance weekly. Describe a plan of implementation. How will you get
involved? How can a college student get involved?
d. “Why would college students get involved with this organization?” Quote a related
