For the Anti Hunger Action 10 x 10 children sell Bijlmermeerstjes, packages of cookies, to mayor G. van Hall at the Dam Square in Amsterdam, where a tram drives around advertising the action. In Nieuwendam the children have a cleaning action and they can participate in sports competitions. In Arnhem state secretary Norbert Schmelzer kicks off a soccer match. The money that is raised by these activities is donated to the action. Also footage of starving children in Third World countries.
