Long Haul Against Hunger

Feed People. Fight Hunger.

The number of families and individuals who live in hunger in the United States is on the rise. Many come from our most vulnerable populations - children and seniors. You can help the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank as we Feed People and Fight Hunger by providing food and other essential products to food pantries, hot meal sites, shelters and other hunger-relief programs.
