When kids aren’t hungry for breakfast, they can be hungry for more.
More ideas. More doing. More dreams. Hunger Is works to make breakfast happen in neighborhoods across America to eradicate childhood hunger, supporting efforts to provide 5 million more breakfasts this year to kids in need.

Forty-eight million Americans – including 15 million American children – struggle against hunger. America has the power to make itself entirely hunger free. But seasonal and charitable work, like packing food pantry bags or volunteering at soup kitchens alone can’t end hunger. Higher impact volunteer work, like volunteering professional skills at an anti-hunger organization or advocating for a stronger safety net or higher wages can make a bigger difference in the fight to end hunger. Watch the video below to see how you can help make a hunger free America a reality.
HungerVolunteer.org can help you get started finding high impact volunteer opportunities in your community. If you need more assistance, emailHelp@HungerVolunteer.org to learn more about our Ending Hunger Through Citizen Service program.

Formerly the New York City Coalition Against Hunger, Hunger Free America has gone national.
The organization runs an AmeriCorps VISTA Anti-Hunger and Opportunity Corps Program that engages 60 Americans in full-time this year (and will engage close to 100 next year), in year-round community service in 29 states from coast-to-coast, who collectively aid tens of thousands of families. They launched www.HungerVolunteer.org to make it easier for people to volunteer across America for high-impact anti-hunger projects. This portal is a state-of-the-art tool to enable Americans anywhere to be more effective when they volunteer.
The organization also manages the National Hunger Clearinghouse and National Hunger Hotline on behalf of USDA. Anyone in the U.S. can call 1-866-3-Hungry to learn where they can access government and private food resources in their local community. Last year the hotline enabled more than 10,000 households, calling from all 50 states, to locate food.
Our mission is to inspire, raise funds, non-perishable food items and hunger awareness, working towards ending hunger through musical performance, staging concerts and events to benefit food banks, pantries and other non-profit agencies.
Our goal is to perform annually from coast to coast over a hundred “Stop Hunger in America” benefits. 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the local food bank. The majority of the food banks are part of the Feeding America network. Chakulla and other artists will perform at a variety of venues ranging from Food Bank Open Houses, coffee houses, music festivals, to school auditoriums. In addition, Chakulla will be playing at Whole Foods throughout the country.
There is an active Kickstarter funding project to provide the annual operating expenses for The Hunger Bus.
