How much is it worth to you to feed a hungry child? |
How much is it worth to you to be sure...
- that a needy baby has enough food to support its physical, mental
and emotional growth?
- that an elderly widower has a bag of groceries brought to his home
so that he doesn't have to live on one meal a day?
- that a young mother learns how to make healthy and economical meals for her family while also learning skills she needs to build an independent life?
You can help end hunger...
- ending hunger in America only happens with help from people like you.
Every day, thousands of people nationwide help with our mission.
- volunteers help everywhere, from offices and warehouses in food banks
to kitchens and pantries in thousands of agencies nationwide . Each
year everyone from scout troops to businesses hold food drives that
bring diverse food and grocery products into our food banks across
the country.
- and of course, accomplishing our mission comes at a cost. Individuals are our main source of financial support. We can only afford the transportation, training, and equipment costs of ending hunger with the help of people like you. Donate Now
