John,

At No Kid Hungry, I meet a lot of heroes passionate about helping provide children with the nutritious food they need to thrive. They inspire all of us to do more, and we’re honored to make their work possible.

Stella Ndahura is one of these heroes. Every day, Stella ensures that elementary and high school students in her district in California have access to a nutritious breakfast. The meals are prepared on-site using basic ingredients instead of prepackaged or processed foods.

Make a Matched Gift

“Food is a basic need,” says Stella. “[Kids] deserve to eat meals. They deserve to get all the resources that are available to them.”

In New York City, Valrie Baker has been feeding kids in school for 25 years — and she takes immense pride in how her work impacts these children. Valrie and her team provide 1,000 free meals to students every day.

“I do this because I love the kids,” Valrie says. “Even if I take a day off, I’ll be thinking about, wonder if my kids eat today, if they get the proper meal. It’s a lot going through the mind. So, to make myself happy, I’m here. If I’m here, they’re going to eat.”

Heroes like Stella and Valrie work hard every day to ensure kids get the food they need to be their best. Ahead of National Superhero Day tomorrow, it’s YOU who has the power to make a big difference in children’s lives.

Thanks to a generous match offer from the Brighter Futures Fund, every $25 you give before midnight on April 30 can help heroes like Stella and Valrie provide 500 nutritious meals for kids.

Please, John: Will you you make a gift of $25 or more now and have every dollar of your heroic and life-changing impact DOUBLED to help kids avoid hunger?

Thank you for supporting heroes like Stella and Valrie — and for being a superhero yourself with your generous gift today.
