Hunger Action Month starts tomorrow and you’re probably wondering how you can help advocate for your neighbors in need of a meal - well you came to the right spot! We have 8 unusual ways to get involved, speak up, and give back this September.
Wear orange.
Orange is the color of enthusiasm, energy, and social communication - and it’s the color of hunger relief. Sport orange all month long or on September 17, Hunger Action Day, and post a photo to social using #HungerActionMonth to show your support. Don’t forget to tag @FeedingTampaBay.
Frame your photo.
In honor of Hunger Action Month, Feeding America has created a Facebook frame. Click here to add the frame to your photo and advocate for hunger relief all month long!
Get competitive.
Gather your family, friends, coworkers, or organization and drum up some friendly competition - see who can wear orange the most, who can raise the most food or funds, or who can volunteer the most hours in the month of September.
Be Reel.
What does hunger mean to you? Create a Reel to share with your friends - and remember to tag @FeedingTampaBay. #HungerActionMonth
