More ways to help end hunger
Give in a variety of ways.
- Give money to our Response for Basic Needs. Your gift will increase support for local food banks by helping a local cannery save fresh foods that might otherwise perish. The newly canned food will be distributed to local food banks, reducing their need to purchase such items.
- Help grow healthy food for families in need through the P-Patch Community Gardens or Solid Ground's Lettuce Link program.
- Invite friends to a "virtual lunch." Estimate the cost and donate that amount to your favorite hunger-relief organization.
- Donate the free items from "buy one, get one free" grocery store campaigns.
- Plan a food drive with your school, neighborhood, place of worship or after-school group.
Visit the Web sites of hunger-relief organizations to learn what they do and how you can help.
Tell friends, family members and neighbors they may be eligible for the Basic Food Program, Free and Reduced School Breakfast and Lunch, the Earned Income Tax Credit and other benefits.
Energize your book group around a book that focuses on the issues of hunger.
Inform your elected officials that you care about the issue of hunger.
