New Year's is just around the corner, a time when many of us resolve to exercise and eat better in the wake of holiday over-indulgences. All of this dieting means that many of us are purging our pantries of carbs, fats, and many other perfectly nutritious foods
What if we could get these foods out of our cupboards and on to the shelves of local food pantries?
Move For Hunger can help you make this idea a reality. With nearly 50 million Americans facing empty cupboards, the time could never be better to organize a New Year's Resolution food drive this year at your local gym. Encourage gym members to donate unwanted food from their pantry-purge, rather than throw it away.* Perhaps the gym will even offer a free trial week membership to anyone who brings 5+ cans? Together, we can make a difference!
Resolve to fight hunger this year: organize a food drive today!
(* Or better yet, donate healthy foods such as whole grain pasta, low-sodium canned vegetables, or no sugar-added canned fruits, to help others kick off the new year right, too...)
