year’s Hunger Action Month
was especially important, and we thank everyone who
participated in big and small ways.”
Throughout the month, people made donations and hosted
food drives for Treasure Coast Food Bank. Elected officials
issued proclamations, and on Sept. 23, Hunger Action Day,
people wore orange to show support for the fight against
hunger. Treasure Coast Food Bank’s other signature event,
Out Laugh Hunger, brought in a sold-out crowd to enjoy
a comedy show at the Bailey Auditorium of Indian River
State College.
Each year, Hunger Action Month brings new supporters to
Treasure Coast Food Bank who may not have been aware of
hunger in the community. With the need reaching levels not
seen since the Great Recession, there’s always opportunities
to support neighbors who don’t always have enough to eat
by giving time or making a donation. Learn more by visiting
