I hope this letter finds you well and enjoying the beauty of spring. In the spirit of growth, I want to share that today is #DoMore24, the DMV's largest annual 24-hour online fundraiser! DoMore24 has spent a decade rallying support for local not-for-profit organizations to help us grow and thrive. I ask you to consider making a donation to Manna today, if you can. Your support is critical to our mission of ending hunger in Montgomery County, in more ways than you might think.
When the community considers “hunger” we don't always think about limited transportation choices, lack of access to culturally-appropriate foods, or lack of institutional trust; yet these issues affect large portions of our food insecure neighbors here in Montgomery County. Giving today will allow us to continue to innovate and collaborate with community partners as we all work together towards #FoodForAll.
Read on to learn about another spring tradition: our partners at RideOn are rallying support in their annual food drive. Also take a look at our recent Heroes Against Hunger ceremony and Honorees. Lastly, I hope you can join us for the next chapter of our ongoing conversation series, Breaking Bread, as we discuss how mental health connects with food insecurity.
Thank you for doing your part to help us #DoMore24 as together we build a better future for everyone in Montgomery County.
