I just learned about a great new campaign that has launched to help raise funds to end childhood hunger. Share Our Strength’s “Operation No Kid Hungry” responds to President Obama’s call to action to end childhood hunger by 2015.
AT&T and Share Our Strength have partnered with each other to offer two great ways that you can support and participate in “Operation No Kid Hungry“.
1. Donate by text: Text “SHARE” to 20222 on your mobile device to donate $5.00. AT&T will match all text donations up to $100,000. Help them to meet this challenge grant. To learn more about the text donation plan please click HERE.
2. Help Collect Food Donations: Now through January 31st, help feed those in need by donating food to your local food bank. Visit Strength.org to find a food bank and a list of the most needed nutritious foods. Even though today is the last day of this particular plan it does not meant that you still can’t continue to donate to your local food banks.
A great way to help donate food is when you are using “buy one get one free” coupons use the free product to donate to the food bank. Or if you purchase in bulk from warehouse places you can offer some of the product to the food banks. The next time you go food shopping if you can just pick up a few non-perishables and donate them to the local food bank it would make a huge difference. Your donation could be the difference in whether a child goes to bed hungry tonight or not.
Now it’s more important then ever that we all join together to help each other out. With more and more families losing jobs the need for food donations is going to increase at a rapid pace.
