A magician, inventor and keynote speaker. My goal with this channel and these videos is to help raise awareness to a huge problem in this world. With your help, I want to end world hunger by teaming up with the nonprofit organization Feed a Billion. 100% of the money raised from this campaign will be going to feed the starving people across the globe. I will be personally donating the listed items below to be given away at random to anyone who donates to this campaign. It makes no difference how much you donate, you will be entered into a drawing to win one of the items listed at the end of this page. About The Cause: Every day nearly 22,000 people die from hunger, one every four seconds. One in nine souls survives each day without enough food—almost 800 million people worldwide are undernourished, 42 million of them in America. Hunger is as old as the human condition. For most of the first 200,000 or so years that humans have been around, it was largely an issue of scarcity and hunting skills. But even with 20,000 years of farming behind us, the gnawing problem persists. The challenge isn't a shortage of food. Thanks to innovations in efficient agriculture, the world produces 17% more food per capita than it needs. Instead, the lingering hurdles are poverty, poor distribution, and conflict. Throw on top of that donor fatigue, (what, another crisis I have to worry about?) and it's easy to understand why no one has solved the problem. So why would two otherwise successful entrepreneurs bother to take on such an intractable crisis? “Because it’s better than if we do nothing,” says Jason Sisneros, 45. “You step into the world of nonprofit and people are not business-minded. They set themselves up to fail. We’re looking to innovate.” Blunt and bullet-headed, Sisneros has bought, turned around, and sold dozens of companies, losing a few in the process, and turning those hard-knocks lessons into a tough-minded three-day management course he calls the Deep Dive. Sisneros is something of a drill sergeant with a tender penchant for hopeless causes. “We have to do something,” adds Ambuj “A.J.” Jain, a 56-year-old former insurance executive who is putting together an investment fund in Atlanta, called 2 Pillars. “We may not solve the problem of hunger, but if we don’t start, how do we get to the ultimate solution?” Jain’s approach is lower-key, but no less passionate. Sisneros and Jain have joined forces in a project called Feed A Billion (FAB). Its goal is to serve a billion meals by Nov. 20, 2020—not to give out one meal per person but to develop a system to feed tens of millions of people on a consistent basis. They’re working with a handful of nonprofit organizations in the U.S., India, and Kenya to distribute the food. How It Works: You can donate directly to this campaign ( https://www.gofundme.com/magic4food ) and that enters you into my personal giveaway of items listed below. Every cent donated to this campaign will go directly to feeding starving people around the world.

If you've you've read this far, I want to personaly thank you for your time and consideration in this matter. It's people like you and me that can and will make this a better world then when we arrived in it. All my best, -Adam
