Dear Friend,

The holidays are fast approaching, bringing joy and celebration to many families across Eastern Wisconsin. But for too many of our neighbors, this season will also bring increased stress and anxiety about putting food on the table.

The ongoing high cost of food continues to strain family budgets. On top of that, government funding cuts have impacted programs that many people rely on — shrinking the safety net for families in need. This means that more families will need help providing nutritious meals during what should be a joyous season.

And of course, many of the families we serve face these challenges throughout the year. But they become more pressing during the holidays. Families are forced to choose between groceries and gifts for their children. It’s a heartbreaking decision no family should have to make.

But through your amazing support, Feeding America Eastern Wisconsin lifts the burdens of struggling families, making their holidays brighter. Your generosity provides the hope and nourishment that families in our community need — enabling them to focus on what truly matters during the holidays: being together.

Just think of how your donation can transform this holiday season for countless local families. Together, we can ensure that no neighbor goes hungry during this season of giving.

And remember, with our special match now in effect, your gift goes twice as far, with each dollar providing 8 meals.

Thank you so much for your caring and compassion.

Sincerely,

Patti Habeck
President and CEO
