I wanted you to be the first to know about our Giving Tuesday challenge of raising enough funds to provide 1.4 million meals in one day with WESH2 News.
Thanks to a $30,000 match from Mullinax Ford, your gift today will provide 2x the meals and hope to families in need. Will you consider making a special Giving Tuesday gift by midnight tonight?
Our goal is huge, but so is the need. Before the pandemic, Second Harvest Food Bank distributed 150,000 meals daily. This number has doubled to 300,000 meals. The number of food searches on our website has increased from 35 to 300 a day. 40% of people visiting a food distribution are doing it for the first time.
The numbers are staggering, but you can help. Your $10 gift will double today and provide 80 meals for families in need.
Thanks to you — and this generous matching challenge — more of our community’s families will be able to find the peace of mind that comes with having enough food to eat during the holidays.
Learn more about how your gift helps by tuning into WESH2 News this morning at 6 am and throughout the day.
Thank you for your support on Giving Tuesday.
