Yesterday we were blessed to be able to serve the homeless who reside in the McPherson Square tent encampment in NW WDC. The experience was humbling and a testament to the resiliency of the human spirit. The people we served were so appreciative and welcoming to us, and we look forward to doing this again in Jan 2023.

Who faces hunger in the United States?
Hunger can affect people from all walks of life. Millions of people in America are just one job loss, missed paycheck, or medical emergency away from hunger. But hunger doesn't affect everyone equally - some groups face like children, seniors, and Black, Indigenous, and other people of color face hunger at much higher rates. Hunger also most often affects our neighbors who live in poverty. With your assistance, together we can help in the fight against hunger.

Help Them Go Back to School!!!

Remember what it was like as a kid, getting all new stuff for the first day of school? How about the excitement of having bright, unbroken crayons; pencils to sharpen; and the fun backpacks? More than 50 percent of the students are from homes below the poverty level, and they deserve to feel the same excitement about school. With the proper resources at their disposal, students will find the confidence to return to school day in and day out. We would like to your support and generous contribution in our effort to provide these necessary resources to these children in need,
