Lawyers vs Hunger

Lawyers vs. Hunger started in 2014 with two food banks and one law firm and provided over 12,000 meals to folks in need. Visit the Lawyers vs.

Hunger is an annual campaign founded in 2014 by the founding partners of Medina McKelvey LLP in Roseville, CA seeking to partner with other legal professionals and the general public to provide meals to individuals and families in need. Since then the challenge has grown to include multiple law firms and six food agencies and provided 326,970 meals in 2020. For 2021, we have 19 law firms and other

sponsors, seven food agencies, and our goal is to provide over 500,000 meals. This year, 19 different law firms and other sponsors across Northern CA and the Bay invite you to join them in the fight against hunger. They have already pledged donations through the campaign, and will match up to $62,200! Your gift of any size provides a nutritious mix of fresh produce, protein and pantry items so that local families can enjoy delicious, comforting meals together. Every $1 helps provide enough food for 2 meals, and through Lawyers vs. Hunger's matching system, those numbers are DOUBLED!
