Most of us know what it feels like to be hungry. Your stomach growls a little bit and you head to the refrigerator to get a little something to hold you over until your next meal.
For about 1 in 10 of us in southwestern Wisconsin that next meal isn’t always there. That means 9 in 10 of us probably don’t know what it’s like to have to water down our food just to make it stretch another day. Or to skip eating dinner so your kids can have enough to eat. That’s real hunger!
Since 1986 Second Harvest Foodbank of Southern Wisconsin has put more than 100 million meals on the tables of the 1 in 10 who are facing hunger in southwestern Wisconsin. A few things to know about us:
We work together with hundreds of local hunger-relief charities to provide the peace-of-mind people get when they know they have enough food
We are dedicated to providing healthy and nutritious food to those we serve (see our Healthy Food Policy)
We are a member of Feeding America, a nationwide network of member food banks and the nation's largest domestic hunger-relief organization
Despite the millions of meals we’ve been able to provide as a result of our generous donors over the years, there is still a gap between the number of meals we provide and the number of meals needed.
That’s where you come in! Whether it’s money, food, time or your voice, you can make a difference in someone’s life. Together, we can end hunger!
