A: Yes, we're glad you asked! Please check out our COVID-19 talking points or email us at livestream@strength.org if you need other resources.
Q: What should I set my fundraising goal to?
A: Based on previous events, we suggest you set a fundraising goal of $1,000. However, we welcome all donations, big and small. You can also change your fundraising goal at any time.
Q: What if I don't reach my fundraising goal?
A: That’s OK! We are grateful that you are raising funds and awareness for our cause. If you need any help with brainstorming ideas or support in another way, please reach out to us at livestream@strength.org.
Q: How does my donation feed hungry kids?
A: Your financial support makes the important work of ending childhood hunger possible. Our sustainable solution to hunger connects kids to existing nutrition programs like the national school breakfast program and the summer meals program. We leverage your donation to help states, cities, and communities close the gap between kids who need food and the food itself. Your donation to feed hungry kids helps No Kid Hungry provide critical grants, supplies and technical assistance to feed more kids. It also funds our work to recruit new summer meal sites, help schools provide breakfast for kids facing hunger and teach families how to prevent hunger at home.
Q: I did a livestream event for No Kid Hungry and would like to know how I can get more involved in your work. Are there additional ways to get involved?
