Day after day, Minnesota families, children and seniors struggle with hunger. Your reliable support through an ongoing monthly contribution helps ensure we can share the ample food that’s available with everyone who needs it.

Signing up is simple.

You choose the amount of your hunger relief donation. At the same time each month, your donation will be automatically deducted from your bank account or billed to your credit card. You can change or cancel your monthly contribution at any time.

“While worldwide hunger is an issue, I think people tend to forget about the local need and don’t recognize it. A one-time set-up is so easy, and your monthly contributions fill the need continuously, not only during the holidays.”

- Jackie Fabel, Monthly Giver
