A Call to Action for Community Support

In the heart of Northeast Florida, a profound challenge confronts thousands of families: hunger. Over the past decade Sherri Porter, Founder and CEO of Hunger Fight has been at the forefront of battling this crisis, offering a beacon of hope to the most vulnerable among us—Title One elementary children. Each weekend, over 15,000 children receive nutritious meals through our programs, ensuring they have the essential nourishment needed to learn, grow, and thrive. Despite our efforts, this is only a fraction of the need in our community. A staggering 88% of those in need still await assistance. Today, Hunger Fight is reaching out for your support. We cannot continue this vital work without you.

The Challenge We Face

Hunger in Northeast Florida is not just a statistic; it’s a reality that affects the lives and futures of our children. These are children who go home uncertain if there will be food on the table, children whose weekend meals are not guaranteed. For many, the meals they receive at school during the week are their only source of consistent nutrition. Hunger Fight’s mission is to ensure that no child goes hungry over the weekend, but the scale of need is overwhelming. With over 88% of those in need still underserved, the task ahead is daunting.

Our Impact

Thanks to the generous support of our donors and the tireless efforts of our volunteers, Hunger Fight has made significant strides. Our nutritious meals are more than just food; they represent hope, stability, and the opportunity for children to focus on their education rather than their next meal. This impact extends beyond the individual children we serve, touching families and communities, and building a stronger, more resilient future for all.
