For many of us, summertime means family vacations and cookouts with friends and neighbors. But imagine instead of trying to decide where to go on your trip, you had to decide between putting gas in your car to go to work or feeding your child a full, healthy meal. Or instead of running to the store to pick up groceries for a barbecue, you had to stand in line at a food pantry because your food budget didn't stretch far enough that month.
Unfortunately, that is the difficult situation that faces the families of nearly 27,000 children this summer. When school is out, these children lose access they normally receive at their school cafeteria. These children are worrying about an empty stomach, and their families are trying desperately to stretch already strained budgets. As a result, there are more parents and guardians seeking help to feed their children during a time when food banks across the country see a decrease in giving.
Each summer your donations have helped the Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana to provide thousands of meals to these children, and we're asking you to join us again to help Stop Summer Hunger. Your donation can make an impact in a child's life this summer. By supporting the Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana, you make it possible for us to provide breakfast and lunch to children through our Children's Summer Meals Program.
Thank you for giving thousands of children the possibility of a carefree summer--an opportunity to just be a kid and enjoy the summer.
