... that today is the anniversary of Hands Across America?
In 1986, over 7,000,000 people participated in Hands Across America by holding hands to bring attention to the plight of the hungry and the homeless in America. They raised $34 million and triggered the release of $800 million in aid from the federal government that had been approved by Congress but had yet to be released by President Reagan.
