It's quite simple really: we're asking people like you to skip 1 thing for 1 day - a coffee, a pack of gum, that magazine at the checkout stand, a car wash, a haircut, a manicure, a cab fare - take the money you would have spent on those things and donate instead to Skip1.org. Public donations go to the acquisition and distribution of food and water projects worldwide. It's that simple. So donate now.

We skip because we can.
We skip because 1/6th of the Earth's population is undernourished - more than ever before!
We skip because 25,000 people die every day from hunger and related causes.
We skip because every 6 seconds a child dies of hunger and related causes.
We skip something because the world needs our help.

Skipping it is easy. The truth is, we'll be ok if we skip one or two or 500 things this year. We have so much! Just think about how much money we spend on THINGS. On stuff we'll never use, or use once and give away, or never use again. This isn't our attempt to make you feel guilty, it's to get you to think about one or two things in your life that you could skip, give instead to Skip1.org and help someone in need. Whether it's skipping $4 at a fast food restaurant or $50,000 on that new car, we encourage you to skip it. You'll never miss it. But a child could live because of it. Just skip it and help us provide food & water to children in need.
