With under two months to go to Hungry for Justice: Social, Economic Environmental (a joint effort by Baylor University’s Poverty Summit and The Campus Kitchens Project Conference), many participants are making arrangements to arrive in Waco, Texas for the poverty event, October 8 – 10.

As we clarify details of the conference, we will post information here. For those who have not yet seen it, here is the latest (and still tentative) schedule of events for what’s shaping up to be the most active and diverse (think documentary screenings, a Justice Exhibit, and service opportunities) conference yet.

October 8-10, 2010
