This September, join the Kansas Food Bank in the movement to end hunger. Your voice, actions, and commitment will help ensure every community has the food they need to thrive. Because when people are fed, futures are nourished.
Every action — big or small — is one step closer to an America where no one is hungry. Join the nationwide movement to end hunger by donating, volunteering, or advocating. Check the activities below to see how you can take action this month!
Fill a Bag, Feed a Family: Can you help us fill 5,000 bags of food? Reach out to pick up bags for your school, office, club or for yourself, fill them with our most-needed items listed, and return them by the end of the month. This is a great Hunger Action Month activity to do with your kids! Learn more here.
