All the incredible work your support fuels. |
I wanted to take a moment to wish you happy holidays. For many people, one of the best parts of this time of year is sharing special food with the people in our lives—I know how much it means to me and my family.

When you give before December 23, your impact can be doubled, up to $450,000, thanks to a challenge match from Plexus. Please make a gift now and help provide a special holiday meal to our neighbors experiencing hunger this winter and beyond.

With gratitude,

Robert in Pittsfield, Massachusetts.
When Robert had a heart attack a few years ago, a lot changed. No longer able to work, Robert relied on support from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to buy groceries and visited Feeding America partner food distributions to get the fixings for a special holiday meal.

But other things changed, too. With his extra time, Robert is giving back to his community by supporting his neighbors with disabilities facing homelessness.

Here's how Robert is advocating for his neighbors while he waits for a new heart >>

This holiday season, we're partnering with Starbucks to support hunger relief. Each protein box purchased from November 19, 2024 to January 2, 2025, helps provide one meal* for families facing hunger.

*$1 helps provide at least 10 meals secured by Feeding America on behalf of local partner food banks.
