The Fight Against Hunger & Poverty

Bread for America is a youth-led non-profit fighting to feed children and communities enduring cycles of poverty. Together, we’ll turn the American dream into the American reality — one delivery at a time.

Guided by our founding principles, the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, and the spirit and energy of the next generation of future leaders – Bread for America envisions a nation free from poverty and hunger, where every American is in good nutritional health and unburdened by inequality. And it is together, that we will grow that ambitious agenda from an “impossible pipe-dream” to imminent reality.

For two years, COVID-19 opened new divisions and worsened old wounds - from income inequality to racial disparity. While America has been on the road to recovery, too many are still being left behind. A 2021 Gallup poll revealed that 10% of Americans were undernourished, the highest rate in decades — and that’s tens of millions not getting the nutrients they need, or the access they deserve. For years, Washington politicians have turned a blind eye to the plight of millions of Americans. Yet, this dark past doesn't have to be our future.

But, this isn't just our fight. It's going to take every single one of us to fight with the working-class and relieve hungry families – and your voice matters. We need your help to join us in building a future where no child goes hungry; a future where no family needs to worry about putting food on the table at dinnertime; a future where our forgotten communities are no longer forgotten; and a future where food is a right, not a privilege.

Every dollar is the difference between a family fed and a future where food is either a right or a luxury for the wealthy. Together, let's bring a sea of hope crashing down onto the shores of America.
