Last year, Feeding America provided nearly 6 billion meals across a vast network of hundreds of food banks and tens of thousands of local organizations across the country!
According to Forbes, that makes Feeding America the #1 largest charity in the United States. With 1 in 7 people facing hunger, this ranking shows the urgency of the movement to end hunger as we work towards a future where everyone, everywhere has enough to eat.
We know that your donations are a sign of your commitment to your neighbors AND a show of trust in us. We take that trust seriously.
We're able to translate donations into:
- Rescuing perfectly good food that would otherwise go unused
- Preparing and packaging that food for safe transportation
- Distributing that food across a network of over 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries and soup kitchens
- Reaching people who need food in every single county in the country
We are proud to work alongside people facing hunger. Serving nearly 6 billion meals a year is a big job, but we're up to the task thanks to donors, staff, and volunteers. It takes thousands of caring people in every corner of this country working together to end hunger.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
Linda Nageotte
President & Chief Operating Officer
Feeding America
