Dear friends, Photos Kelly Sullivan

When a family is out of food and flat out of options, it’s an emergency that calls for immediate attention — and we make it our business to make sure those calls for help are heard. For 35 years, we’ve sponsored The Walk for Hunger, which marshals 40,000 Walkers and 200,000 supporters to provide food for those in immediate need. At the same time that we vigorously advocate for the resources to support soup kitchens, food pantries, and food banks across the state, we work just as vigorously to prevent emergencies.

After all, hunger is a complicated problem that calls for a mix of solutions. And Project Bread has become a national leader in integrating traditional responses like food pantries with innovative community partnerships designed to prevent emergencies from happening.

In the past year, we’ve been working in 20 of the lowest-income communities in the state, putting hunger prevention on the agenda for local leaders and finding new ways to protect families. From innovative efforts like serving rural communities with home-delivered summer meals to vibrant new partnerships between farmers and schools, we’re at the cutting edge of alleviating and ending hunger in Massachusetts.

With the help of thousands of donors and friends, Project Bread is crafting real life solutions for real people. And you make this vision possible.

Sincerely, odd Lehman

Thousands of children in Massachusetts are chronically hungry. That’s It all begins with food. why, five years ago, Project Bread began investing substantial resources in Good food nourishes the body . . . prevention programs aimed at childhood hunger. During this time, Project and the spirit. With regular Bread developed an innovative program model — the Massachusetts Child meals, a child is free to grow, Hunger Initiative — which actively creates, tests, and implements programs to ask a question, to tell a joke. Good food brings laughter and to feed children where they live, learn, and play. a sense of belonging.

While Project Bread supports 400 emergency food programs, it believes that children should be fed where they live, learn, and play. Project Bread has led advocacy that increases the use of underutilized federal nutrition programs, such as programs for mothers and young children, school meals, and food stamps, among others. During the past year, Project Bread continued intensive community organizing in 20 low- income cities in Massachusetts, bringing local leaders to the table and making access to a wide variety of nutrition programs available to low-income families.

To date, the signature achievement of Project Bread’s prevention work has been the state’s support of universal breakfast programs in low-income elementary schools, affecting over 100,000 students. When schools make breakfast a regular part of the school day, most of the students who need it will start the day with a nutritious meal. This year, Project Bread used incentive grants to encourage 54 low-income schools in 11 cities to increase their participation in breakfast to 80 percent.

Leadership. It’s the single most important thing an antihunger organization can bring to hungry people — whether it be in the form of celebrity endorsement, political backing, or best practices. With leadership comes those who — with a single stroke — can change the lives of hundreds of thousands of children and families for the better.
