PROCLAMATION
HUNGER AWARENESS WEEK
OCTOBER 9 - 16, 1984
WHEREAS, October 16, 1981 was observed as World Food Day by the members of
the United Nations' Food and Agriculture Organization to raise
awareness of the gravity of the world food situation, particularly
in the developing countries, and to stimulate greater national and
international efforts to overcome hunger.
WHEREAS, it is the goal of the Gallatin Valley Food Bank to show that
Americans and the citizens of Bozeman care deeply about hunger and
malnutrition wherever they occur in the world. We can do that
by building networks of people sharing our anti-hunger commitment,
by developing continuing programs to meet community and world food
and/or nutrition needs and by using Hunger Awareness Week as an
annual benchmark in our struggle for a better planet and a better
way of life for all people.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Ken Weaver, Mayor of the City of Bozeman do hereby
proclaim the week of October 9th through October 16th, 1984 as
HUNGER AWARENESS WEEK
and do urge all Bozeman residents to join in the efforts to overcome hunger.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the great seal of the
City of Bozeman, in the State of Montana,
Seal to be affixed at Bozeman, Montana, this
1st day of October, in the year of Our
Lord, One Thousand Nine Hundred and
Eighty-Four.
