September is Hunger Action Month!
Turn your Compassion into action…
September is Hunger Action Month, a nationwide effort started by Feeding America to raise awareness about hunger in America and inspire local action. As a local community, we ask that you join FeedNC by turning your compassion into action this September. Having access to nutritious food can alleviate undue stress and promote things like children’s academic success, adults securing employment, and preventing food-related illnesses that disproportionately affect individuals living in poverty in your community. Will you join us?
