Submitted by collin on Tuesday, 1 September 2009One Comment
The Atlanta Community Food Bank will join more than 200 Feeding America food banks across the nation this September in Hunger Action Month, a call-to-action for Americans to get involved in fighting hunger. View an online calendar to see how you can make a difference.
As part of Hunger Action Month, the Food Bank and Faith Alliance of Metro Atlanta will host our first-ever interfaith dialogue on hunger via Twitter. The conversation begins at 1:00 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 14. Follow along using #NotByBreadAlone.
ACFB will also hold an open house on Saturday, Sept. 19, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to bring awareness to the topic. www.acfb.org
We would like to invite your readers to visit
http://www.AmpleHarvest.org
to learn about a nationwide campaign to diminish hunger in America by enabling backyard
gardeners to share their crops with neighborhood food pantries. Over 865 food pantries
nationwide are already on AmpleHarvest.org and more are signing up daily.
Your readers can help both by encouraging local food pantries to register as well as
encouraging gardeners to use the site to help find local food pantries (see
