Christina Aguilera Visits Guatemala With WFP

Christina Aguilera and the World Food Program (WFP) sees hunger first hand during a recent trip to Guatemala, which has the highest child malnutrition rates in Central America.

The 28-year-old singer explained, “I wanted to see with my own eyes what hunger means. As a mom my heart just breaks when I see how young mothers like ConcepciĆ³n struggle to feed their children. I don’t think I can ever forget these images.”

Adds Chrsitina, “The people of WFP do such a great job helping hungry children and mothers. I’m thankful for the opportunity to be part of such a wonderful project and incredible team. WFP urgently needs donations to keep feeding some 150,000 women and undernourished children – I want to raise awareness and open people’s eyes so they can get the funds they need to keep on working.”
