When school lets out for the summer, free and reduced-price meals can disappear for millions of kids. When school meals stop, kids lose more than lunch.

A nutritious meal fuels kids' confidence, concentration and momentum to learn and grow. Summer break shouldn't mean kids go without the nutrition they need.

Be one of the 1,000 donors we need by June 30 and join the Feeding America Summer Challenge to help get lunch and other meals to kids this summer and all year long. Right now, your support can help provide twice as many meals to kids and families experiencing hunger. Your gift can be matched, up to $250,000, thanks to Sheryl Sandberg & Tom Bernthal.

Nutritious meals give kids the fuel they need to play and learn. When we all play a role, we can make sure they're supported over the summer and return to school engaged and ready to thrive in the fall.

This 2X match is the perfect opportunity to help make a big impact on the movement to end hunger—don't miss this chance to double your impact. Right now, your gift can go 2X as far to help kids get the food they need >>
