"[Katharine McPhee](/magazine/blogs/selfystars/2010/02/selfy-vip-katharine-mcphee) has her hands full with a new Christmas album and a role in *Shark Night 3D*. But she's made time to work with Feeding America and the ConAgra Foods Foundation on their Hunger-Free Summer program.\\n\\nMcPhee stopped by the SELF office to chat about this amazing program. She shared this shocking stat: one in four kids don't know where their next meal is coming from. \\\"It's hard to tell sometimes that these kids are hungry. Hunger doesn't look just one way and it doesn't discriminate,\\\" the *American Idol* alum said. \\n\\nThe Hunger-Free Summer program raises money to distribute food to children nationwide. McPhee teamed up with them this summer to visit public schools, where she passed out meals, met the kids and even taught them how to write songs. So inspiring!\\n\\n\\n\\nWant to get involved? It's the time of year to give back, so visit [FeedingAmerica.org](http://www.feedingamerica.org) to donate or find a food bank near you where you can volunteer your time. You can also talk to your local food bank about signing up for the program.\\n\\n\\n\\n[#image: /photos/57d8e87c46d0cb351c8c744f]||||||\\n\\n*--Allie Baker*"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
