It's #HungerActionDay! We're wearing orange to spread awareness about hunger in our community and build a shared vision for a community where everyone has access to the nutritious food they need to thrive. Show us your orange - post a photo and tag WayForward Resources and use the hashtag #HungerActionDay! [Photo: A group of children and their coach wearing orange t-shirts look down toward the camera]

What a sweet surprise! This week we received an entire gaylord of corn grown in the Ken Witte Garden through our ongoing partnership with Madison Area Food Pantry Gardens. [Photos: Two men unload ears of sweet corn from a truck.]

ANNOUNCEMENT: We are pausing clothing donations until October 15. Over the last few months, we have seen a significant increase in clothing donations at WayForward from our generous community. While we appreciate these donations, we have now reached our space capacity to store these clothes. Because of this, we encourage you to hold further donations or take them to another community partner. We are taking this pause to ensure that we have enough room in our warehouse to receive food to distribute to our community as demand continues to increase. Food donations are still greatly needed and appreciated. Thank you for your support and understanding! https://lnkd.in/dcqV8DV5
