Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank Main Campus

Join us for the official book release and select readings from some of the contributors. This book is a collection of poems and stories written by people who have experienced hunger firsthand. Through their voices, you’ll find not only struggle, but strength. Not just hardship — but hope. Their words are a testament to the power of community. No one should go hungry. Together, we can make a difference.

Join us for Rock the Block for the Foodbank, a community event organized by HiHO Brewing Co. & First Serve, the outreach ministry of First Congregational Church in Hudson. This event is open to the public and will feature a live performance by The Beams, with special guest Dan Flowers!
