While many children throughout the country welcome to start of summer, for millions of families, summer can mean additional hardship. 14 million U.S. children -- one in five -- live in households that struggle against hunger, and we know that child hunger soars during the summer when traditional school meals are unavailable. As our Countdown to Summer giving campaign comes to an end, will you help Hunger Free America connect families in need with food? https://lnkd.in/e929GSXK

One of the things elderly people struggle with is loneliness and lack of social engagement. Sometimes, it can be difficult for them to leave their home due to illness, inability to drive, and lack of transportation options. Programs like these can be a wonderful way to invest in the lives of our senior citizens. #NCIwisconsin #Neuropsychology #Kenosha #seniorcitizens
Can you help? We consistently find word of mouth is the most effective way to spread the word about our program. We currently have 7 seniors in our community who are waiting for a weekly visit from a new friend. Please consider volunteering-we only ask for one hour per week of you time! If you cannot volunteer at this time, please help us out by telling your family, friends, co-workers, church family, and all in your circle about us-we would truly appreciate it. Thank you! https://lnkd.in/gh_Wak2N

I did a thing today. A thing that is outside my comfort zone, but oh so important as we Make Hunger History in the state of Minnesota. Over 100 Second Harvest Heartland staff & volunteers, Hunger Solutions Minnesota (part of the The Food Group ) staff & supporters, and other community members & organizations met at the state capitol to raise our voice for change at the 2024 Hunger Day on the Hill. During the meeting with my state representative, I was able to share my experience with a senior in my neighborhood. They posted on our local Facebook group asking for help because their SNAP application must have been processed wrong- they only got $23 a month. I was shocked and confident it was an error until I asked colleagues. Nope, not an error. $23 dollars a month in SNAP benefits. That’s barely a bag of grapes, container of chicken, and loaf of bread in our current economy. I asked my representative to support a bill to increase minimum SNAP benefits for seniors from $23 to $50. It wasn’t scary. It wasn’t intimidating. I was equipped well to make the ask. And I’m glad I took the step to use my voice to advocate for policy that supports hunger relief for today & prevention for tomorrow. Making Hunger History will involve pulling our advocacy levers to create systemic change. If I can do it, you can do it. Let’s do it together. Ready to take the next step in advocacy? Sign up here to receive updates & action steps! https://lnkd.in/guAK7Dkd #MakeHungerHistory #advicacy #publicpolicy P.S. Many thanks to Johnson & Krista for being my advocacy partners today! We’re better together.

Our very own Leslie G. sheds light on the pressing issue of child hunger in NYC in a recent op-ed featured in amNewYork. As #NYC schools switch to summer break, many kids experience reduced access to nutritious meals, leaving families to face the challenge of providing additional meals for their children who heavily rely on free school meals. In a city where 23.5% of children live in food-insecure households—equating to over 416,000 kids struggling to access sufficient nutrition—support from food banks, summer programs, and soup kitchens becomes crucial. Despite the availability of resources, many eligible children miss out due to a lack of awareness or accessibility. It's imperative to enhance access to food assistance programs and resources, like those offered by Food Bank in partnership with community allies. Dive into the full article to discover how we can unite in the fight against child hunger in NYC: https://bit.ly/4bQLmTT

This time of year, when so many festivities are centered around holiday meals, it is important to acknowledge food insecurity in our nation. In the United States, 9 million children live in “food insecure” homes. At NBCDI, we envision a world in which every Black child has access to meals that provide them with the nutrition they need to grow to maintain their health and well-being.
