Then, HAVE A RICE DAY:
Anyone can participate in a HAVE A RICE DAY. There are seven internationally recognized dates where the right to enough nutritious food is a crucial element.
Consider involving people in your family, your work place, your school or your club/group in a HAVE A RICE DAY. Order you HAVE A RICE DAY buttons and substitue one of your meals for a simple bowl of rice.
