Hunger Action Month logoThe River Valley Regional Food Bank would like to thank our community of donors for a successful Hunger Action Month campaign.

Each September, the River Valley Regional Food Bank, in conjunction with Feeding America, takes part in the national Hunger Action Month campaign, to mark the fight against hunger in the River Valley. We mobilize our community to step up, donate, and be advocates for ending hunger in our community and all across America.

Our community stepped up this year, as we received more than 1.5 million pounds of food, and were able to provide more than 1.1 million meals to hungry River Valley families through our pantry network — all thanks to donations from our great community.

An extra special thanks to these community partners whose food and funding drives, volunteer work, and promotional efforts, helped us achieve a successful 2022 Hunger Action Month campaign:
