No one should wonder where their next meal will come from. Yet hunger continues to rise in the U.S, even as our country remains one of the wealthiest in the world.
Cuts to critical food assistance programs like SNAP put even more families at risk. We must act now to ensure everyone has access to the nutritious food they need.
👉 Visit Hungerthon.org to support our work connecting people with food today and investing in community-led solutions to end hunger long-term.
Together, we can meet this moment and build a better future.

The administration just proposed eliminating Broad-Based Categorical Eligibility (BBCE), a SNAP rule that streamlines access. If enacted, it would strip benefits from 6.3 million people. And that's on top of the over 5.5 million who have lost SNAP over the last year.
Eliminating BBCE will not decrease hunger or improve program integrity. We have just 30 days to submit a public comment.

Former White House Chef & Senior Policy Advisor Sam Kass reminds us to keep humanity at the center during a Climate Week dinner he co-hosted with WhyHunger. Sam shared how climate change is already affecting the future of the foods we love, calling on us all to think of climate change not only as an environmental issue, but as a food justice issue.
Innovative solutions must still be rooted in people: farmers, community leaders, organizers and neighbors working every day to build stronger, more resilient food systems. Keeping their humanity at the center is essential to create lasting solutions for both climate and hunger.

In Curve's new issue, editor Merryn Johns interviews Jones about a pertinent subject: "...Americans face a growing hunger crisis—yet we have a record number of billionaires. But what's being doing about it?"

With host @TheKalenAllen and an incredible community of supporters and special guests, we came together with one goal: to help end hunger in the U.S. At a time of rising need, we raised over $600k to support work addressing food insecurity.
Thank you for showing up, speaking out, and hustling for a world where everyone has access to healthy food. 💚

Nutritious food should be a human right, not a privilege. Yet 24% of adults and 1 in 3 households with children were food insecure last year.
With 50+ years of proven impact, WhyHunger is ready to meet this moment. We’re connecting people to emergency food relief AND investing in long-term solutions to hunger like community co-ops, sustainable farming, and movements for food justice.
