The stories we hear from families experiencing hunger would break your heart: cereal for Thanksgiving dinner, mustard sandwiches and ketchup soup. Not all share in the plenty of the holidays.

So I’m urging you to respond right away. Make your first donation to help No Kid Hungry keep kids fed — no matter what.

As you shop for your holiday meals, you’ll probably notice that things are a bit more expensive than they used to be. Food prices — especially for pantry staples like flour, bread, milk and eggs — have skyrocketed this
year. For many families, these rising costs mean the difference between eating that day and going hungry, never mind enjoying a Thanksgiving feast.

|
As a member of the No Kid Hungry community, you’ve already shown you care about helping kids — and donating is one of the best ways to do that. Please make your first gift now.
|

Thanks to donors like you, schools and local communities throughout the U.S. are already reaching kids with the meals they need to grow and thrive. But holidays like Thanksgiving can be especially disheartening
for a child or family struggling with hunger.

As Alexandra Molina, Director of Food & Nutrition Services at McAllen Independent School District, said, “What we know is that no parent wants to ask for help in feeding their child. It is very different than asking for
clothing and asking for maybe rent assistance. No one wants to admit that ‘I don’t have enough food in my refrigerator for my family.’”

John, that’s why it’s so important for us to be there for families whenever they’re in need, but we can’t do it without you. Every $10 you give can help provide 100 meals — will you become a supporter today?
|
|
Wishing you all the best this holiday season, and thanks in advance.
|

Sincerely,
