September Is Hunger Action Month

Every year in September, members of Feeding America come together for Hunger  Action Month to raise awareness not only of the issue of food insecurity  but of the incredible impact our community can have when we take action together.  Throughout the month, we’re asking our community partners to raise their voices and take action with us on behalf of the 120,000 people who turn to the Food Bank of Northern Nevada each month for food assistance.   Head on over to the Hunger Action Month page for more details on all the ways you can join us in saying #iFightHunger throughout the month.
