Hunger Awareness Day 2018
June 1, 2018 has been proclaimed Hunger Awareness Day in San Luis Obispo County. “One Day, One Dollar, One Big Challenge to Feed the Hungry” You can make a significant difference in the life of a hungry individual. 1 in 6 people are hungry in SLO County. 40% are children. 20% are seniors. All are our neighbors. This signature event takes place on the first Friday in June. Over 25 donation sites are set up from 7am to 7pm throughout SLO County. With live radio and TV coverage and a large social media presence, the community support from businesses, clubs, schools, civic groups, families and individuals is tremendous. Our goal is $100,000…one dollar at a time. How your business or group can help: Volunteer! Sign up your business/group to volunteer at a collection site near you on Hunger Awareness Day- Friday, June 1, 2018. Wear your business attire with logo. We will put a photo of your volunteer participation on our social media that very day! Fundraise! Collect funds/hold a fundraiser and drop funds off at a donation site near you on June 1, 2018. We will put your funds presentation photo on our social media- Facebook, Instagram and Twitter right away! Advocate! Post our flyer at your business and spread the word about this important day!
