Title: Fasting while feeding

A group called Project Feed is taking on hunger in the Bay Area. The group, which is open to anyone,
but is primarily Muslim, is currently celebrating Ramadan. During Ramadan, people fast from sunrise to sunset, helping them to feel empathy for those who may not know where their next meal will come from. This story
discusses the importance of treating your neighbors, including those without physical homes, with respect and dignity.
