Open the post“Today is Hunger Action Day 🧡 For children facing food insecurity, weekends can bring uncertainty about where their next meal will come from. At Backpack Buddies of Metro Atlanta, we’re working to change that by providing weekend meals to 3,000 children across 53 Title I schools in Metro Atlanta this school year. Today, take action with us. Donate, volunteer, share our mission, or help spread the word about childhood hunger in our community. Every action helps us reach more kids. #HungerActionDay #HungerActionMonth #BackpackBuddies #MetroAtlanta #endchildhoodhunger”
