Join Us for Hunger Action Month: Host a Food for Action Dinner!
Each September, Oregonians come together to take action against hunger in our communities. Hunger Action Month is a crucial time for us to unite and address the systems that perpetuate hunger and its root causes.
This year, Oregon Food Bank has created a one-stop-shop for you to make a difference with your friends, family and community! Throughout September, people all around Oregon will be hosting their own Food for Action Dinners using our special toolkit.
Inside the Food for Action Dinner Toolkit, you will find everything you need to host an impactful and easy dinner.
Start with our appetizer items — editable invitations, recommended recipes and an inspiring playlist.
For the main course, engage in meaningful discussions about hunger and food justice with some conversation starters.
And for dessert? A list of actions you can take after feeling inspired by your discussion!
This year, we're also rallying support for Food for All Oregonians, which aims to expand access to food resources (like SNAP) to over 62,000 Oregonians currently excluded due to immigration status.
Download your free toolkit and start planning your Food for Action Dinner today! While the toolkit is free, we welcome any donations at the link here to support this work.
Why a community-centered toolkit?
Food is a human right. Our freedom, health and ability to thrive depend on access to nourishing food. But food alone will not solve hunger. To end hunger for good, we must dismantle the systems that perpetuate it. By spreading the word and inviting our people into the movement to end hunger, we can reach more people and make lasting change.
Achieving food justice requires community support, and this support goes beyond money. At the heart of our work, you'll find love and equity. We celebrate everyone who works to end hunger, and we hope this toolkit brings joy and meaningful action to your efforts.
Join us this Hunger Action Month and help end hunger in our communities. Together, we can make a difference!
