When kids have access to nutritious food, they have the energy to learn, play, and chase their dreams! Your support helps provide fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and milk—fueling kids so they can thrive. You may have seen recent headlines about changes to USDA resources. These shifts could mean 1.4 million fewer pounds of food for our community—potentially impacting 25,000 families. But when we work together, there’s hope! Now through May 8, you can do twice as much good for local kids and families through our Powered by Food campaign. Thanks to a match incentive from PNC Bank and other generous sponsors, your gift will be doubled—up to 2 million meals! Feed the future today! 🧡 https://lnkd.in/gWdewEBu
