Dear Lucas,
We need you to support a food fight.
I'm not talking about slinging Sloppy Joes in a school cafeteria.
This is a food fight we fight every day for our nation's neediest kids and it's about to get harder. Why?
- The recently passed House Budget Resolution could cause nearly 9 million people to be cut from SNAP (formerly known as Food Stamps).
- Nearly half of the 47.8 million SNAP participants are children.
Our politicians continue to balance the budget on the backs of low-income families, specifically on children who can't speak up for themselves.
It has never been more important for us to join together and help protect our nation's children — which is why we are setting a goal to recruit 500 new members to our monthly giving club, the Hunger Core, this April.
As a friend of the No Kid Hungry campaign, we know you care. That's why we're calling on you to join The Hunger Core today.
By making a gift of $20 a month, you'll provide the critical, steady and reliable funding we need to protect our nation's children from these major budget cuts and advocate for their healthier, brighter futures.
Many barriers exist in connecting additional kids to food and protecting programs that reach our neediest children takes a significant amount of resources. With a steady funding source backed by Hunger Core members, we can be poised to take immediate action against threats to resources that connect hungry kids with the food they need.
Lucas, please know that you can help safeguard our children and ensure they get a great start at life when you join the Hunger Core today with a gift of $20.
Thanks for being a leader in our nation's food fight when our children need you more than ever.
Sincerely,
Billy Shore
Founder and CEO
