SUPPORT RAPID HUNGER RESPONSE TO COVID-19

COVID-19 is already seriously impacting food insecurity for those most vulnerable in Massachusetts. 

Your help is urgently needed to support rapid hunger response to the effects the coronavirus is having on our public health and economy—already in effect, so no one goes hungry. 

From Project Bread:


*Project Bread ( http://www.projectbread.org/children-and-schools/) is working in tandem with the Department of Education to continue "school meal" service in our highest-need communities. 

*Our FoodSource Hotline is actively assisting people who need help getting food. And plans have been implemented that will allow this resource to continue to operate despite the closure of the Department of Transitional Assistance, and any periods of quarantine. 

*SNAP is our most critical resource during this period of crisis. We are partnering with legislators to jointly call for food aid increase in response to COVID-19. 

Food is not the issue. Right now, the issue is distribution and scale. Federal nutrition programs are the only scalable way to reach people in need—SNAP, WIC, and school meals, are the only solutions that put money back into the economy right now.

Our scalable solutions are more necessary than ever to protect our community during this period of crisis, so no one goes hungry. Please give generously. 

About Project Bread:
Project Bread works to ensure that low-income children in Massachusetts have access to nutritious meals year-round by working with schools and community partners across the state to improve, expand, and increase participation in School Breakfast, Summer Eats, and our Chefs in Schools program.
