September is Hunger Action Month
Food shouldn’t be an impossible choice.
For tens of millions of people in America, a daily meal isn’t a choice between different dishes. It’s a choice between food and other crucial needs—like medicine, electricity, or childcare. This September, join us for Hunger Action Month by sharing how you will end hunger. Sharing, volunteering, pledging, fundraising, and donating are just a few ways to help end the impossible choices of hunger.
This September, choose to stand against hunger. We challenge you to start a Food Drive and see how much of an impact you can make on your community!
Support people who face the impossible choices of hunger every day.
