September is ‘Hunger Action Month’ in Northumberland!

Hunger Action Month is dedicated to raising awareness of food insecurity, advocating to end hunger and poverty across Canada, and recognizing the work being done by local food banks, school nutrition programs, community meals and hunger relief programs, to take action against hunger.

Throughout September, Northumberland County Food 4 All and Northumberland’s twelve local food banks are joining Food Banks Canada and Feed Ontario in their efforts to promote initiatives to help end hunger. To get involved and take action:

• Read our 2023 Feed Change Report to learn more about local food support and to view distribution and usage data for food banks and school nutrition programs in Northumberland
• Visit and share the Food Help Northumberland website to find out where residents can access local food support
• Follow the Northumberland County Food 4 All Facebook page (@NCFood4All) and share our Hunger Action Month content to help spread the word about food security
• Participate in our ‘30 Ways in 30 Days’ challenge, encouraging community members to get involved by completing one action each day to support food security in Northumberland. To participate, download the calendar or follow the Northumberland County Food 4 All Facebook page (@NCFood4All) for daily reminders of how you can support Hunger Action Month
