National Hunger and Homeless Awareness is a monthly, international campaign to help raise awareness for those most vulernable in our communities.
Much progress made in fighting global poverty is at risk because of the impacts from COVID-19. Already, 110 million more children are going hungry due to the economic impacts of the pandemic, and half a billion more people are at risk of being pushed into extreme poverty. According to a recent report in the Lancet Journal, 10,000 more children a month are dying from hunger due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Help as The Rescue Mission tries to raise funds in honor of this international campaign. Proceeds will go to directly benefit the men, women, and children of The Rescue Mission.
