September is Hunger Action Month. What Can You Do?
Hunger Action Month
During the month of September, the RI Community Food Bank and hunger relief agencies across the country are bringing attention to the issue of hunger and encouraging the public to respond in a personal way. We hope you’ll recognize Hunger Action Month by doing something to help your neighbors in need. Our website offers some great ways you can get started.

What Can One Company Do to Help?
One Company Can
In honor of Hunger Action Month, we encourage you to get your workplace involved in helping Rhode Islanders in need. One Company Can is a booklet of best practices for businesses and organizations that want to run a food or fund drive to benefit the Food Bank. It features the ideas we’ve learned from many local companies that have successfully supported the Food Bank while building teamwork and strengthening their reputation as good corporate citizens.

Community Farms Featured on NBC10
McCoy Farm
NBC10’s Plant Pro series recently featured our Community Farms program, seven volunteer-operated farms that grow food for the Food Bank and its member agencies. Watch as Plant Pro Sejal Lanterman talks with Daine Stacy and Chris Clegg at McCoy Community Farm about the need for volunteers and how they help the farm grow food for Rhode Islanders in need.
