Families4Families (F4F) is a DC-based nonprofit that brings together young leaders to fight food insecurity.

F4F's student volunteers (F4F Student Chapters) collect groceries and other essential items and get them into the hands of families in need.

The F4F Student Portal is officially LIVE! 🎉

We’re so excited to share that we recently launched a new space designed to make leading your F4F club easier than ever. The Student Portal includes exclusive resources for Chapter Leaders, including the Master Calendar, Student Leader Directory, Leader Resources, Post-Drop Survey, and more!

Created for students, by students, this portal was designed by former F4F leaders Avery Wincup and Emma Canan. Thank you to both of them for all of the hard work they put into developing this resource!

Ready to check it out? Visit families4families.org, click “Student Portal” in the top right corner, and log in using the password in your Student Toolkit.

We’ve been going through old drive photos all summer, and it has us so excited for the new school year!

School year collections are just around the corner, and we’re so excited for what’s ahead.

Tag your chapter in the comments; we want to see which chapter is the most excited👀

Most people think “food desert” means no food around. It doesn’t. Swipe through to learn what it actually means.

Distance. Transportation. Cost. Time. Any one of those can turn a “nearby” grocery store into one that’s basically out of reach.

That’s the exact gap F4F exists to help close.

Save this; it’s worth knowing! And if you’re curious what closing a gap like this could look like at your school, DM us “chapter.”🧡

Ever wonder what F4F’s National Youth Leadership Conference actually looks like? 🤔

Workshops. Speakers. Student leaders from all over, in one room. This is F4F at its most alive 🧡

Tag someone who needs to be here next year!

This is your sign to do a summer drive with your swim team 🏊

The Kenwood Swim Club took theirs and collected food and essential items, all headed to families served by our partner Fihankra Akoma Ntoaso (FAN-DC). Turns out, a summer morning at the pool can turn into something special in a way you don’t expect.

Tag a school (or swim club 👀) that should be next!!!

John didn’t plan to build a nonprofit; he just saw families struggling and started collecting groceries in his driveway.

We’re proud to celebrate John, whose passion and hard work earned him the Sodexo Stephen J. Brady Stop Hunger Youth Scholar honor.

This national award honors 5 student leaders fighting hunger by raising awareness and mobilizing solutions to eliminate food insecurity. From one driveway to a national movement, John’s leadership is why F4F exists today.

Drop a 🎉 to congratulate John on this well-deserved recognition!

What if the students doing the work also shaped the future of the org?🤔

That’s exactly what the F4F student advisory board does! They’re not just members, they’re the bridge between chapter leaders on the ground and F4F’s leadership team, making sure the student voice is always in the room where decisions are made.

Swipe to meet the 2026-27 board and find out what they’re most excited about for the year!

Do you recognize anyone on this year’s board? drop a comment and give them a warm congratulations, they’ve earned it🧡
