Be a Holiday Hero: Help Feed America with These Cool Ways in 2023!

Hey there! The holidays are coming, and it’s not just about presents and yummy food. It’s also a time to help others. Did you know that lots of people in our country don’t have enough to eat? But guess what? You can help make things better!

Feeding America, a big group that helps feed people who are hungry, has teamed up with some awesome companies to do just that. They’re working super hard this holiday season to make sure everyone gets enough to eat. And you can join in!

The Fresh Market

Shopping at The Fresh Market? Until December 31, 2023, you can round up your bill at the checkout. This means your change goes to help feed hungry people.

Fresh Thyme Market

Fresh Thyme Market is also letting customers round up their bill at the register until November 30. This helps local food banks give out more food.

Hy-Vee

Hy-Vee has a cool campaign called “100 Million Meals.” From November 16 to December 31, when you check out, you can round up your total or give a donation online. This helps local food banks right in your community.

Southeastern Grocers’

Starting November 15, at stores like Fresco y Más, Harveys Supermarket, and Winn-Dixie, you can donate a little bit when you pay for your groceries. Every penny helps feed people in need.

On November 28, which is Giving Tuesday, T-Mobile will donate $1 for every tap on a special offer in their app, up to $200,000!

BMW

BMW has been helping out for six years now. They’ve already given over 15 million meals! If someone buys a new BMW by November 30, they’ll help give 200 meals to people who need them.

But wait, there’s more you can do! You can volunteer, give money, or even spread the word on social media. Check with your local food bank to see how you can be a holiday hero.
