Taking action to help end hunger is more critical than ever. Prior to the pandemic, Feeding South Florida was serving approximately 706,000 food insecure individuals and now, that number is over 1 million. Right here in South Florida, 1 in 5 individuals don’t know from where they will get their next meal – over 330,000 of whom are children. This September, GO ORANGE to raise awareness about this critical issue.
GO ORANGE AND END HUNGER ONE HELPING AT A TIME by pledging to do any of the following. In exchange for participation, Feeding South Florida will promote your support of Hunger Action Month presence on our website + possible features on social media!
What is Hunger Action Month + Why Go Orange?
As part of a nationwide initiative created by Feeding America®, Hunger Action Month™ takes place throughout September and is designed to raise awareness about the issue of hunger in America. In South Florida, over one million individuals don’t know from where they will get their next meal – nearly 330,000 of whom are children. Hunger Action Month is your opportunity to be a part of a month-long movement that has a real and lasting impact on our mission of ending hunger in South Florida.
This year, we celebrate Hunger Action Day, a.k.a. “GO ORANGE DAY,” on Thursday, September 10th, and bring awareness to the issue of hunger in our community throughout September!
