<div>HUNGER IS CLOSER THAN YOU THINK.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Together, we can help feed our Connecticut neighbors.
</div>
<div>For 19 years, The Mitten Project, founded by Earth Animal in partnership with CT Foodshare, has brought our community together around one simple belief: no one in our community should have to wonder where their next meal is coming from.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>OUR 2026 GOAL: $110,000
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The need across Connecticut is urgent.
</div>
<div>1 in 7 Connecticut residents faces hunger.
</div>
<div>1 in 5 children faces hunger.
</div>
<div>More than 560,000 people across our state are food insecure.
</div>
<div>54% of Connecticut households struggle to afford basic necessities.
</div>
<div>Behind every number is a neighbor. A child. A senior. A family trying to make ends meet.
</div>
<div>Last year, our community came together and raised an extraordinary $100,834.64 for CT Foodshare.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This year, we're going further to help CT Foodshare get nutritious food to families throughout Connecticut.
</div>
<div>Every donation matters. Every share matters. And every person who joins us gets us closer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please give what you can, and help us make sure our Connecticut neighbors have food on their tables.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>$110,000. ONE COMMUNITY. LET'S DO THIS!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for standing with us, year after year, and for reminding us just how powerful a community can be when it comes together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love and gratitude,
</div>
