Summer should be joyful for every child, but unfortunately it's a time when food insecurity is at its worst for many of the families in our region.During the summer months, when school is out, thousands of children must go without the regular access to the school meals they count on to nourish their growing bodies. Families who already struggle to make ends meet must budget for two extra meals per day, per child. It is a difficult, if not impossible, task for many. Your gift today will help provide nutritious meals for children in June, July and August.
In Support of Foodlink
Foodlink is a Rochester-based nonprofit dedicated to ending hunger and building healthier communities by addressing both the symptoms and root causes of food insecurity. We serve as the hub of the emergency food system across a 10-county service area. As a leading public health organization, Foodlink administers many programs and initiatives that aim to build the health and wealth of communities.
We provide food assistance through the safe storage and distribution of emergency food to our network of food bank members and community partners. We build healthier communities through innovative programs that create new access points to nutritious foods and empower people to make healthy choices. We drive change through bold career empowerment initiatives and advocacy for a more just, equitable food system.
