Doing the Most to Fight Hunger
The Salvation Army helps cure hunger daily by providing nutritious meals to anyone in need.
59% of people seeking food assistance choose between paying for food and paying rent or mortgage.
Each night in the U.S., 17.4 million families go to bed hungry. An additional 6.9 million families experience very low food security. That means they don't always know where their next meal is coming from.
The Salvation Army provides an average of 156,000 meals every single day across the U.S.
Every day we're providing meals to children in Head Start programs, families in shelters, people living on the streets, and struggling neighbors who are unsure of where their next meal will come from. In addition to addressing the immediate symptoms of food insecurity, our programs are designed to help identify and treat its root cause.
Hunger is curable. You can help.
