Description
As we gather for meals with friends and family – on weekends, around holidays – too many children go without this simple comfort.
MREF’s 30 Days of Giving will raise awareness, inspire giving, and drive support for programs that ensure every child has access to nutritious food, not just on special occasions, but every day.
Rally your team and turn every donation into a win for kids in your community!
Sponsors can create a team, then invite friends and colleagues to join. The MREF is asking sponsors to provide monetary donations to support the nutrition needs of children across the globe. At the same time, the competition encourages team members to collect and donate food items to their local food bank or community organization. The team with the most donated items wins the competition!
Individuals are also invited to make a difference through monetary donations to the MREF.
Why is the MREF focusing on food insecurity?
Every child deserves to access nutritious food – not just on special occasions, but every day.
In the U.S., 20% of children do not know where their next meal is coming from. In some school districts, children as young as 5 years old go hungry at lunch, and many miss field trips, dances, and even walking at graduation due to school lunch debt.
Approximately 412 million children live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than $3 a day (UNICEF).
