“Go Orange!” Take Action In September With Our 30 Ways In 30 Days To Help Those In Need & Support The Fight Against Hunger


Phoenix – In a year unlike any other, St. Mary’s Food Bank celebrates its 54th year feeding Arizona’s hungry in 2021. The World’s First Food Bank will kick off Hunger Action Month in September by raising awareness and encouraging the public to make a special effort to help those in need.

One in six Arizonans struggle with hunger each day of the year. One in four Arizona children in our state aren’t getting three meals a day. But these numbers can change if we all take action, support food banks and earn some great benefits for yourself in the process.

How can you help? St. Mary’s Food Bank’s “30 Ways in 30 Days” Hunger Action Month calendar, presented by Arby’s, provides an action or activity for every day in September so all Arizonans can step forward and help those struggling with food insecurity.

It can be as simple as making a cup of coffee or a Casual Friday at work or home and donating what you would have spent that day to help the hungry. Every dollar donated will allow St. Mary’s to distribute enough food for SEVEN meals. Or you can take advantage of many ways to donate time, food or funds alongside some of the many local businesses who have stepped up during Hunger Action Month.

“Hunger Action Month is a great way for everyone to find their favorite way to fight hunger,” St. Mary’s President and CEO Tom Kertis said. “We thank all of the businesses and organizations who are taking part and a special thank you to Arby’s as our 2021 calendar presenter.”

There are many ways to help and many other companies and groups holding events or volunteering their time during Hunger Action Month. Click here for a full calendar of “30 Ways in 30 Days” activities. Click on each calendar square to read about that day’s event.
