Hunger Action Month is almost here!

Hunger Action Month is almost here!

August 20, 2020 in Get Involved

In southwest Missouri, far too many people struggle with hunger. Even more people are going hungry as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. This September, you can help raise awareness—and provide meals—by participating in Hunger Action Month.

All proceeds from this year’s events will benefit our Weekend Backpack Program, which provides meals for children who might not get enough to eat over the weekends. This life-changing program provides weekend meals to more than 1,600 children in 61 schools every year.

So, sign up to volunteer, check out a few events and partnerships and help us Transform Hunger into Hope in the Ozarks! Due to COVID-19, all of our events will take place online this year. Spread the word!
