September is Hunger Action Month, a time when the Feeding America network and the public come together to raise awareness and inspire action to help people facing the impossible choices of hunger.
There are nearly 440,000 food-insecure people in the Central Texas Food Banks 21-county service area, including children, seniors and veterans. Hunger Action Month takes on even more urgency this year, given the increased need for food assistance brought about by rising prices.
Its important that all of our neighbors have access to enough healthy food to reach their full potential; especially our children, who cannot grow, succeed or learn on an empty stomach.
Food should not be an impossible choice. Thank you for donating and helping feed families this Hunger Action Month!
