But chances aresomeone

nearby doesn’t know if

they’re going to eat tonight.

 

Some 53 million people turned to food banks and community programs for help putting food on the table in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, according to Feeding America.  

Today, more than 34 million people, including 9 million children, in the United States are food insecure (meaning they lack consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life, according to the USDA).

Can you imagine worrying where your child’s next meal will come from?

$100 = 80 meals

Need can affect anyone.

As the only provider of social services in every U.S. zip code, The Salvation Army uniquely understands that poverty rates alone don’t provide a full picture of need. In fact, 6 out of 10 people who are food insecure—who lack financial resources for food—do not technically live in poverty.

 

 

That’s why The Salvation Army serves an average of 156,000 meals every single day across the U.S.—and we’ve been at it since 1865. From community food banks to drive-through food box distributions and home meal deliveries, we meet the need for food. Your gift of $100 will help The Salvation Army provide 80 meals to fight against hunger today.

 

This year, the need for food is greater than ever—and The Salvation Army is there to serve.

For an out-of-work family at a food pantry.

For a young man far from his family.

For thousands at a drive-through distribution.
