September 2010 is HUNGER ACTION MONTH!!
Throughout September, Feeding America's nationwide network of food banks is calling upon their communities to take action. Mobilizing everyone in America to take part in the fight against domestic hunger by generating strong and sustainable issue engagement is the goal. Americans are encouraged to participate during the month by attending local food bank events, donating time, money, or their voice, participating in one of many corporate promotions and getting children involved in "Hunger Helpers."
Your "30 Ways in 30 Days" action for September 7 is:
Sign up for Kids! Volunteer groups of 10-12 people can sign up, starting today, to help fill sacks for our 2010 - 2011 BackPack Program: Food for Kids school year. Call and ask for Katie.
