As a parent, I know what means to be worried if your child is hungry. I know the sound of that cry. There’s plenty of finger pointing that can be done about who is to blame for the formula shortage, but for right now, there are people in need, and we can help them.  The People For Liberty team has compiled a list of resources that you can share.  Feel free to add in more in the comments below.
