Letter From the President & CEO
Dear Friend,
Fall is almost here. Kids return to school, and, for many of us, a new chapter begins filled with challenges, big and small. However …
For many low-income families, ensuring everyone gets healthy meals each day can be difficult and painful when there isn’t enough to go around. Yes, some kids will once again start receiving free meals through their school this fall, but they are not the only ones confronted with hunger and heartache in our community.
This issue of Around the Table explores how people from all different walks of life face food insecurity. It’s a problem that touches lives, far and wide. Yet, so too does your compassion. Thanks to caring friends like you, we will meet the challenges of this fall with resources and optimism.
Hunger is a year-round issue, and we seek to offer year-round solutions, lending hope and support to the most vulnerable among us. But we can’t do it without inspiring individuals like you.
Thank you for caring, and taking action when neighbors are hurting. I’m so grateful.
And remember, every $1 you give provides 4 meals. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Patti Habeck
President & CEO
