Hunger can leave a person feeling helpless. Loneliness can make days feel long and hollow. But a meal and a friendly visit can remind someone they’re not alone.

It’s called Hidden Hunger. Poverty isn't always easy to see. It's a senior skipping a meal to pay the bills. A parent going without so their children can eat. There are people in our own communities, quietly struggling to make ends meet. No matter what county you live in, chances are someone nearby is facing hunger.

This International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, help us make sure no neighbor in Greater Philadelphia goes hungry or feels alone.

Philadelphians always take care of Philadelphia.

But there are still way too many neighbors struggling to put food on the table. They are hungry and often alone. We can't reach them all without your help.

Together, we can bring more food and friendship to our neighbors in need. They are counting on us. Will you help?

In Philly, caring means showing up for each other. For a neighbor struggling to get by, having food for the week can mean relief, hope and knowing their community hasn’t forgotten them.

Philadelphia takes care of Philadelphia. Help us keep showing up. https://secure.qgiv.com/for/cfffall2026

Every day, Caring for Friends feeds the "Hidden Hungry" and those who are forgotten. And over the past few years, we have more and more Philadelphia families who are just not able to have a simple Thanksgiving meal around the table.

For 25 years, Ann Connors cared for others as a nurse. Today, living with cerebral palsy and other health challenges, Ann’s the one who needs a little extra help.

The Caring for Friends team does more than deliver food to Ann. We visit, share stories and smiles and make sure Ann and neighbors in need know they haven't been forgotten.

Thousands more “Anns” across Philadelphia still need our help with food and friendship. Please donate this Fall for people like Ann https://secure.qgiv.com/for/fall26_s
