The University Plaza Hotel is joining buildings across the nation to “Light Up Orange” this September, during Hunger Action Month, to help shed light on the critical issue food banks like Ozarks Food Harvest fight daily.
It’s an issue more than 170,000 southwest Missourians—and almost 49 million Americans—face year-round, but during the month of September, everyone can do their part to take action against hunger, one of today’s most prevalent, yet solvable social problems.
Nearly 100 community members from local businesses are giving time to Ozarks Food Harvest on United Way’s annual Day of Caring.
