John, The hungriest time of year is about to begin — and families and communities across the country need our help to ensure kids have the meals they need to thrive.
Thanks to the Brighter Futures Fund, every dollar you give right now will be DOUBLED, up to $50,000, to help more kids access meals this summer. But we need your help to reach our goal before midnight on June 21. Will you please make a gift of $25 or more now and have it DOUBLED toward ensuring more children can access the summer meals they need?
Families who live in rural Virginia and Tennessee often drive up to an hour to get to the nearest grocery store — and that is becoming less affordable as the prices of food and gas continue to climb.
Thankfully, following an advocacy win in Congress, rural communities can now organize meal deliveries and meal pickup sites during the summer. No Kid Hungry is helping maximize the positive impact from these changes by providing grants to purchase vehicles, food safety equipment, and funding to hire staff.
In one year, these efforts enabled communities in southwest Virginia and northwest Tennessee to increase the number of meals they served to kids in the summer from 12,000 to over 60,000.
Until midnight on June 21, your gift can be DOUBLED to help us make the same impact in communities like these across the country. Will you please make a gift of $25 or more that will go twice as far toward helping provide meals to kids this summer?
Thank you for your support at this critical time.
