Hunger Action Month
We’re celebrating Hunger Action Day September 27, 2023.
Food shouldn’t be an impossible choice. But for millions of Americans, it is. Choosing between paying the power bill or getting groceries is a choice many of our neighbors make each month.
This September, join us as we band with Feeding America’s nationwide network of food banks to end hunger in our nation.
Hunger Action Month is your opportunity to get involved and make a lasting impact. Whether it’s by activating, advocating, donating, or volunteering, you can find a way to make a difference.
