Guy Abelson, special events coordinator for the Rhode Island Community Food Bank and a local caterer, hawks lunch to passerbys outside the skating rink in downtown Providence today, as a fundraiser for National Hunger Awareness Day. The food bank was serving a brown-bag lunch, donated by Whole Foods Market, for a $10 contribution. The goal of the day is to remind people that hunger is a serious, but solvable, problem, the organization says.
