According to Foodbankonline.org, September is Hunger Action Month, when the Feeding America network of more than 200 food banks unite to urge individuals to take action in their communities.

How can you help? It’s easy.

We’re asking you to simply ‘Speak Out Against Hunger’this September.

Why speak out? Because 1 out of every 4 people in the Foodbank of Southeastern’s Virgina service area struggles with hunger and often does so in silence. They live in our community; they are our neighbors, our co-workers, and our friends, yet their struggles can go unheard. By simply lending your voice, you can make a tangible contribution to mobilizing the public in the fight to end hunger.
