September is Hunger Action Month. Hunger exists in every county in the U.S., affecting 48 million Americans including 15 million children. In northeast North Carolina, 14.7% of people face food insecurity.  Food Bank of the Albemarle believes that hunger IS solvable and we’re leading the charge to end it and ask everyone to take action to fight hunger in our community, all month

This year’s campaign seeks 40,000 actions – a volunteer shift, a social media post, or a donation – from the public that will help end hunger one helping at a time.

September marks the 13th year the Feeding America network has organized this annual call to action.  To learn more about Food Bank of the Albemarle and other ways you can get involved for Hunger Action Month in northeastern NC, please visit www.afoodbank.org or HungerActionMonth.org.
