John, I have huge news to share, so I wanted you to hear it from me first: Starting today, all gifts will be MATCHED by the Brighter Futures Fund — up to our $200,000 end-of-year goal.

Since 1 in 5 children is currently experiencing hunger in our country, this match opportunity couldn’t be more impactful. It will help ensure that we’re able to secure every dollar of our end-of-year goal — all so we can ramp up our work in the new year to connect more children with the meals and consistent nutrition they need. 

But this match only makes a difference if supporters like you take advantage of it. So please, can we count on you to double your impact today? Make a donation right away and have every dollar go TWICE as far toward our mission to end childhood hunger once and for all.

Thanks to supporters like you stepping up in moments like this in 2024, we were able to:

• Help provide more than 374 million meals to kids and their families.
• Grant nearly $18 million to school districts, community groups and other organizations working to help kids.
• Advocate for increasing Child Tax Credit support, making it possible for families across the nation to receive over $1.4 billion in new and expanded state CTC benefits.

But even with this tremendous progress, we have so much work ahead of us in 2025 for the millions of kids who are still struggling to get enough to eat. That’s why we need your support so urgently, before the year comes to a close — while your gift will be MATCHED.

So please, John, will you rush a donation now to have your gift DOUBLED toward helping provide more meals to the kids who need them most?

Thank you for being someone we can count on when it matters,

Karen Barr
