Eric's Running Campaign for WhyHunger!
Tax deductible
This November, I will be running the New York City Marathon (First time) for the non profit organization WhyHunger! We are raising money to spread awareness of how hunger can be defeated by creating equal opportunities for all. Any donation is greatly appreciated, even the smallest amount can go a long way!
I feel like emphasizing that this is a nonprofit that recognizes that access to nutritious food is a human right for all. It is not a food charity model, but a food justice model that looks at the root causes of hunger. They fund and partner with community leaders doing the work end hunger nationally and globally. As part of this, they have partnered with Organizacion Boricuade Agrocultural Ecologica In 2018 to rebuild local farms after Hurricane Maria. Their why hunger hotline finds free summer meals for teens and kids in need with no income requirements or ID needed. They also have sustainable urban gardens where kids volunteer to learn more about agriculture and nutrition. 26 miles to go!
