Hunger relief organizations are in crisis. Especially those in rural areas. When I say hunger relief I mean the food shelves/pantries, school pantries and organizations doing the actual WORK Why are they in crisis? Answer: the need is the HIGHEST it’s ever been, they’re small organizations that don’t have the budgetary capacity to expand, they don’t have the human capacity to serve and the people above them making decisions don’t understand what is truly happening in rural communities nor do they have the compassion to physically come help. Our rural community organizations need help in every way possible. It’s time for us to show our human compassion and capabilities

We know that hunger won’t end until everyone has enough money to buy healthy food. This means we need to work with communities facing hunger to ensure everyone has a grocery store near their homes, access to affordable childcare and reliable transportation to work and school. The growth in food shelf visits is not sustainable. Tackling the causes of hunger, together, is crucial to getting ahead of the problem. That’s why we’re bringing together farmers, neighbors, and nonprofits to make hunger history. #Make HungerHistory #FoodBank #EndHungerTogether

This past Tuesday was Hunger Action Day! CEO Scott Rumpsa joined The Morning Mix on Fox 17 to share how neighbors like you can help nourish our neighbors and build a stronger, healthier communtiy. Hunger doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Families who struggle to access the food they need often face other challenges, and a setback in one area creates a ripple effect across systems: education, childcare, employment, housing, healthcare, food, finances, and transportation. Complex problems require holistic solutions - that’s why we combine healthy food access, resource navigation, financial empowerment, and street outreach to build a community where all of our neighbors have what they need to thrive, and no one faces challenges alone. It takes a community, working together, to nourish our neighbors! Act with Action House by volunteering, hosting a drive, or donating to support our work!

Today is #WorldHungerDay, a day to raise awareness of the urgent problem of world hunger and an opportunity for people to help. Alleviating hunger through school feeding has been the focus of Mary’s Meals' work for two decades. School meals address the immediate need for food and offer access to education. In the 17 countries where we serve, Mary’s Meals provides meals for 2.4 million children every school day. Too often, it is the only meal they will have in 24 hours. In countries experiencing extreme hunger, like Ethiopia and Haiti, school meals are lifesaving. Especially today, our founder, Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow, urges action to address extreme hunger and says famines have no place in the 21st century. Yet, fear of famine looms in Ethiopia and other countries impacted by violence and conflict.  https://lnkd.in/gCdCj6tK #EndHunger

Every year, on May 28th, people around the globe come together to observe World Hunger Day. This day has been set aside to bring into our minds and remind us about the millions of individuals and families who suffer from hunger and malnutrition every day. While it is a day of awareness, it is also a day of action, a call to mobilize efforts towards ending hunger worldwide. World Hunger Day provides an avenue and opportunity for individuals, organizations, and governments to reflect on the root causes of hunger and to renew their commitment to finding sustainable solutions. It is a time to raise awareness about the interconnected issues of poverty, food insecurity, and unequal access to resources. There are many ways to participate in World Hunger Day and make a difference. Whether it's volunteering at a local food bank, donating to organizations that fight hunger, or advocating for policies that address the underlying causes of food insecurity, everyone can play a role in ending hunger. On this World Hunger Day, let us come together to support those in need and work towards a future where no one goes to bed hungry. Together, we can make a difference and create a world where everyone has access to nutritious food and the opportunity to thrive. #RNI thanks for this opportunity.

🔔 ICYMI: 🧡 “September marks Hunger Action Month, and today, we also pay tribute to the 9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance. 🇺🇸 Hunger is a year-round challenge, but this month and this day serve as a reminder to come together and make a difference. Millions of people across the country, including families and children, face food insecurity every day. After the September 11th attacks, David Paine and Jay Winuk—who lost his brother Glenn, a volunteer firefighter—sought to redefine this day by making it one of service. What started as a simple idea has grown into the largest day of service in America, with over 30 million people dedicating their time to help others each year. At Ridiculous Engineering, we’ve committed to service by raising awareness about hunger and supporting the millions of families facing food insecurity. Today, as we reflect on the significance of this movement, we encourage everyone to get involved. Together, we can fight hunger and foster a spirit of service and unity that extends beyond this day. 🌎🍽️ #HungerActionMonth #EndHunger #SocialImpact #RidiculousEngineering #FedsFeedFamilies https://lnkd.in/ez7VKk27
