It was returned beautiful­ ly done, and it didn't look as though it had been out of anybody's sitting room, it had been so carefully handled all the way through. The other Elizabeth Fry panel stayed in one person's sitting room. She was a disabled person, and it was a very enjoyable winter for her, because everybody came to her, visited and worked with her. So the tapestry isn't just a question of trying to make a certain number of em­ broideries. It's all these other things. I very often say that it's all these other things that are more important than the embroidery. But you can't divide them.

FRIENDS JoURNAL April 1989 43 WAYS TO FIGHT HUNGER 3 THROUGH QUAKER SERVICE ACCESS TO WATER through irrigation, wells, dams and gravity-fed water systems is making 1 it possible for people to grow more food in Kampuchea, Laos, Mali, Somalia and New Mexico.

ACCESS TO FOOD through food banks and cooperatives in California and Appalachia makes it 2 possible for low-income people to have more to eat as well as quality food. Garden projects provide additional food and/or increased income to families in Guinea­ Bissau, Mali, Somalia, and on Native American reser­ vations in South Dakota. Rice seed has been provided in Southeast Asia during times of drought.

PROTECTION OF LAND AND WATER RIGHTS is enabling small land holders to remain self-sufficient 3 in Kentucky, New Mexico and Brazil.

The American Friends Service Committee has worked on hunger and its causes since World War I. Today it assists people at the community level to meet food problems. Small-scale programs offer seeds, tools and access to water with an emphasis on appropriate technology. Many pro­ vide particular assistance to women-the producers of much of the world's food. Emergency responses to famine or warfare are frequently linked to long-term development I Ar::ic:-Friend:-;ervice Committe:- I I* Finance Department I programs which build food self-sufficiency. 150 I Cherry St. Programs in the United States include development of Philadelphia, PA 19102 I I farmers' markets and food cooperatives for low-income Enclosed is my tax-deductible contribution people, advocacy for more adequate government food pro­ of$ to be used to fight hunger.
