It’s a great way to help. You knew that you wanted to make the new year about a healthier you and now, while you do, the hungry in our area will get the help they need. The Food Bank of Northern Nevada, a member of the Feeding America network, assist individuals, families and children struggling with hunger right here in our region.
We are joining Feeding America’s Pound for Pound Challenge – a proven, effective program supported by NBC’s The Biggest Loser, General Mills, Subway, 24 Hour Fitness and Walgreens – in its second year of helping America “Lose Nationally, Feed Locally.” The program helps people gain support in their effort to lose weight as they, in turn, help local food banks like ours raise funds to assist individuals, families, and children struggling with hunger in our area.
All we’re asking is that you visit www.pfpchallenge.com and join us in the Challenge. There are plenty of ways you can help! You can sign up to be a Challenge participant, support someone taking the Challenge with a pledge, become a Challenge Champion in our community, or start a Challenge team at your company or organization.
It’s easy. And the more who sign up or pledge in our area, the more we can help fight hunger in our community. As of right now, we have 177 people signed up in our area that have pledged in the pound for pound challenge!
We hope you’ll join us in show America that northern Nevada is up to the Challenge!
Thank you for your support!
Pound for Pound, we can fight hunger!
