#GiveHealthy Food Drive to Fight Obesity
Please support Neigbor to Neighbor with Healthy Food Donations
Let's get people facing hunger the kind of food they really need!
My name is Molly McHugh and I've organized this food drive to raise healthy food to help fight obesity. People facing hunger also face high rates of diet related health issues - obesity, diabetes and more - due to lack of access to healthy food. I hope you'll join me by making a healthy food donation to support Neighbor to Neighbor.
Each month, Neighbor to Neighbor provides enough free food to prepare over 25,000 nutritious meals for needy families in Greenwich.
Neighbor to Neighbor gave out 313,000 meals last year! 129,000 of those meals went to children. 40% of the food is donated by individuals and via organized food drives.
Since 1980, the relative cost of nutrient-rich food has increased by 40% while, during the same period, the relative cost of low-nutrient "junk" food has decreased by the same amount. Neighbor to Neighbor is based in Greenwich and improves lives by providing for the exchange of food, clothing and basic living essentials in an atmosphere of kindness and respect. Fresh produce is expensive and therefore out of reach of many Americans. Yet fresh produce is a cornerstone of a healthy diet and a strong focus on Neighbor to Neighbor's food pantry.
It's easy to help out, select the Donate button. Pick out and purchase the healthy food items you would like to donate. The food will be delivered for you to Neighbor to Neighbor. You will receive a tax receipt via email for your donation.
Thanks for your support!
