Prominent countries such as the United States and the U.K. constantly reach out to impoverished nations. Decreasing poverty is one of the U.N.'s more important resolutions. Food and clothing is sent to impoverished nations yearly. Many different organizations such as the World Bank and the IMF make enormous contributions to improve of the situation of world-hunger. The United Nations constantly strives along with the IMF and the World Bank to decelerate this accelerating, disgusting epidemic that is haunting each and every soul in this world today.
