3.19.13 Hunger Strike Transition

As you may have read by now, the organization that we started, The Hunger Strikewas forced to cease the use of the name, branding and online communications to avoid a federal lawsuit. The lawsuit was solely over the use of the organization name and didn’t involve any fraudulent or criminal activity, especially related to the use of funds. All past & future donations have remained secure and will be used for its intended purpose.

We encourage you to read the full statement on www.thehungerstrike.org 

At this very early stage of transition, our goal is to still move forward with meal packing events, concerts, mission trips, and advocacy events as scheduled. All of those event details can be found at https://www.facebook.com/willetonline/events

12.31.12 Love on the Outside ACOUSTIC E.P.

As many of you know, 2013 will start our 8th year as a touring band! This past year, we had the opportunity to record and release The Love on the outside E.P. (Produced by Aaron Gillespie) on a pay-what-you-can basis (digitally & at all shows), making it available to over 10,000 people! What you may not know is that as a band, we started a non-profit organization called The Hunger Strike as an effort to mobilize missionaries, advocates and 1 Million Nutritious Meals for hungry children as a Gospel-Centered response to physical and spiritual poverty worldwide. Here is a glimpse at what God did in 2012 through the ministry of Willet/The Hunger Strike:

• Shared the Gospel and performed 9 times in London during the 2012 Summer Olympics
• 288 Children from Mozambique Sponsored through Food For The Hungry
• Mobilized 120,000 nutritious meals for hungry children through The Hunger Strike 
• Opened for Family Force 5 & Disciple on 25 City U.S. Tour
• Distributed 10,000+ copies of “Love on the outside E.P.” (Produced by Aaron Gillespie) on Pay-What-You-Can basis
• Performed on 11 city U.S. Tour with Project 86 
• Performed 100+ “Love on the outside Tour” dates, including major festivals w/ Switchfoot, Newsboys, & David Crowder

And now, for an important announcement regarding 2013
We often talk about how HUNGER, both physical (children starving due to lack of food) and spiritual (entire groups of people that have never heard the name of Jesus) is an EMERGENCY.
2012 for Willet was a step towards reaching the nations with the Gospel of Jesus Christ by making our album available on a pay-what-you-can-basis.
2013 is the leap of faith.
Today we are releasing “The Love on the outside Acoustic EP“. Recorded in Iowa while on tour with Family Force 5 & Disciple, we used an acoustic guitar, acoustic bass, rhodes, piano, harmonica, hand percussion and group vocals to record this ACOUSTIC version of the 2012 “Love on the outside E.P.” (Produced by Aaron Gillespie). All “tips” for this download benefit the non-profit organization that we started as a band called The Hunger Strike. A SUGGESTED TIP OF $5 WILL MOBILIZE MISSIONARIES, ADVOCATES & 8 MEALS FOR HUNGRY CHILDREN.

This is a glimpse of “whats-to-come” for the ministry of Willet & The Hunger Strike.
Today, we are happy to announce the merger of Willet & The Hunger Strike. 
 
Not much will change for you as a music fan of Willet…we will still continue to release albums, tour the country leading worship/performing, and we will still even continue printing Willet merchandise. With the merger, your purchases, album downloads, and financial support of our band will go further! Starting in 2013, when someone purchases a Willet T-shirt, CD, or any other piece of merchandise, INCLUDING music downloads, the money will benefit the mission of The Hunger Strike to mobilize missionaries, advocates, and 1 million nutritious meals for hungry children.
We didn’t set out to create a “movement”. Movements are temporary. We started The Hunger Strike as a Gospel-centered response to physical and spiritual poverty worldwide, and today, we would like to set the example by making a change in the lifestyle of our band.
Enjoy the Acoustic E.P. download today, and be on the lookout for a new full length Willet Album coming in 2013! 
In Christ,
Willet
