I can't stop thinking about these headlines:

For so many people, the math of daily life just doesn't add up anymore:

• Parents skip meals so their kids can eat.
• Students juggle the costs of school supplies and groceries.
• Seniors stretch fixed incomes.

Rising prices of groceries and other essentials like housing are pushing more of our neighbors to a point where they don't know where their next meal is coming from.

Right now, nearly 48 million people face hunger across the country—the highest number in more than a decade. You can help: please, rush a gift now >>

Even during this difficult time, I know that at every step, neighbors are helping neighbors. Taking in shipments from grocery stores. Packing boxes of food. Offering to load meals into a car. When the headlines feel overwhelming, I think of how together we take care of each other.

Can you make a $25 gift today?

When we all come together, small actions ripple into lasting change. Thank you for taking part.

Best,

Linda Nageotte President & Chief Operating Officer Feeding America
