What number of households might we feed if we work collectively to donate what we are able to? For every dollar donated through Feeding America 10 meals are provided – TEN meals, my mates, that’s no small factor. We’re all within the presence of starvation, seen or unseen, and even a greenback or two could make a distinction. If we hit our aim of $50,000, together we will provide 500,000 meals!

Right now, I’m grateful for a fridge full of leftovers and praying that collectively we will assist feed as many households as potential by means of the vacation season. Barefeet In The Kitchen will match all donations made to Feeding America through this link, as much as $25,000.
