Hunger is much more widespread than people realize.One out of every ten residents in the Washington, DC metropolitan region is food insecure – and nearly 30% of them are children.
Hunger and food insecurity is a reality many families live with in our nation’s capital. Families are forced to choose between providing food and other essentials to their families. We want to change that.
In 2020 alone, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, hunger and food insecurity has risen to historic levels and food banks have seen high demand and have doubled meals provided to community over the past year alone. With several local, state, federal and non-profit programs and initiatives, it’s a daunting task for an insecure family and those that are hungry to know about and access food resources available. Cease Hunger strives to work at the grass roots level with local communities, organizations, churches to simplify, communicate, collaborate and distribute food to those families in need.
We pick up surplus food post events and business meetings that would have gone a waste to take to local food banks that serve the needy
We take food items that will not be used and not needed to put it in the hands of the needy
We take fresh farm produce that would otherwise be wasted to feed those in need
