Help Us Fight Food Insecurity in Texas Did you know that nearly 4 million Texans struggle with food insecurity? That's about one in every eight residents, facing a daily challenge to find enough food for a healthy, active life. Our PB&J Days model shows how we can make a real impact together. If just 47,619 people contribute $20 each, we can make enough PB&J sandwiches to make a significant difference. This represents less than 1% of our state’s population coming together to fight food insecurity. One sandwich may seem small, but it can be the first step toward discussions to provide greater assistance and support for those in need. It all starts with a sandwich. Join us in making a difference. Together, we can solve this. To learn more about how you can start a PB&J Day in your area or support us directly in San Antonio, please go to our website, pbandjdays.com. #food #SpreadKindness #pbandjdays #MakeADifference #help #service #homeless #endhunger

CEO with forward-looking lens | Visionary executive proven to implement strategic initiatives | Passionate advocate
What is food insecurity? The answer depends upon where you are and who you ask. It has different meanings in different communities. So instead, our question should be: what does food insecurity mean to you? From there, we can tailor our approaches and solutions accordingly to ensure our neighbors have access to the food they need. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to what food insecurity looks like and means in our communities, and as such, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Every day, United Way works alongside those seeking to dismantle barriers to healthy food and create a #NourishingCommunity for all.
