This Hunger Action Month, try hosting a community dinner. 🍽️ It’s easier than it sounds!

Invite a few people over, share a meal, and use the time around the table to talk about hunger in Alaska.

We put together a simple guide to help you plan your own gathering, including conversation starters, a Pinterest board with ideas, and an editable Canva invitation you can customize and send to your guests.

Small actions can start meaningful conversations. This Hunger Action Month, start one around your table. 🧡

Our local Starbucks partners nominated Food Bank of Alaska to receive a grant from The Starbucks Foundation.

That support starts with the people working in Starbucks stores right here in our community, and we’re grateful they chose to recognize our work and the neighbors we serve across Alaska.

THANK YOU to our local Starbucks partners for thinking of us and helping strengthen food access in our communities.

The best way to understand hunger in Alaska is to volunteer. 🧡

One shift can give you a firsthand look at the need in our community. Choose an opportunity that works for you, then invite a friend to join you. Volunteering with someone you know makes the experience even more meaningful.

Ending hunger is long-term work, and rest is part of staying committed to it. 🧡

This Labor Day, we recognize the people whose work keeps food moving across Alaska, from farmers and grocery workers to drivers, warehouse teams, volunteers, and the staff serving communities across our state.

Today’s Hunger Action Month action is simple: Take time to rest and recharge.

We’ll be back tomorrow with another way to take action against hunger.

Thinking about starting a food drive? 🥫

A great food drive starts with items that are nutritious, versatile, and easy to prepare.
