Impact

Welcome to the Hungry for Impact challenge! No Kid Hungry needs you to join us in our fight against childhood hunger. 1 in 5 children in the United States will face hunger this year - and everyone has a part to play in solving that.

Through a combination of grants, strategic assistance, advocacy and awareness, No Kid Hungry is equipping communities with the resources they need. 

This week, you and your teammates will participate in daily tasks to learn more about this mission and to become ambassadors for this work. Once you complete the challenge, you will be ensuring children receive consistent, healthy meals at home, at school and in their communities.

Follow along with the five days of action below and spend the week helping us end child hunger.
