Thank You for Making Kickoff a Success!
We had over 200 volunteers help package 50,000 Mac & Cheese meals in UNDER 2 hours! That is amazing! Local churches, organizations, non-profits, and agencies all benefited from the meals. This task was only possible with the support of each business, community member, partner, organization, family member and friend who helped make Friday morning a smash.  
Thank you!

As you begin your workplace campaign, here are a few helpful links...
With your campaign packet you should have a poster with a blank speech bubble made of chalkboard paint- write on it! Snap a photo and send it to us so we can share everyone's voice with the community!

The theme for workplace campaign this year is What This Place Needs. Think about the type of community you want to live in. Now think about the type of community you already live in. Do the two overlap? What can you do to achieve the community you want? Small steps can be taken every day to better our lives and the lives of those around us. Lead by example, speak up at a city commission meeting, or get involved with a cause you are passionate about. 
Hunger conversation with community members on Friday, Sept. 26
