Operation No Kid Hungry
Many of you remember my posts last year about the Great American Bake Sale. It is a wonderful event sponsored by Share Our Strength in an effort to raise money to end childhood hunger. We were very successful in our endeavors and plan to do even better this year.
In the meantime, when I learned about their new campaign, I felt compelled to share it with you – it is such a simple way to feed the hungry children in our country.
Share Our Strength has launched a brand new campaign to raise funds to help end childhood hunger. ”Operation No Kid Hungry” responds to President-elect Obama’s call to action to end childhood hunger by 2015.
Share Our Strength has partnered with AT&T to offer two great ways that you can support and participate in “Operation No Kid Hungry”:
- Donate by text: Text “SHARE” to 20222 on your mobile device to donate $5. AT&T will match all text donations up to $100,000. Help us meet this challenge grant! Find out more here.
- Hold a food drive: Beginning January 19th, a national day of community service, help feed those in need by holding your own community food drive. Visit http://Strength.org to find a food bank and a list of the most needed nutritious foods.

Hi Michelle,
Thank you so much for all of your support! It’s people like you who really make a difference, and together we can all help end childhood hunger.
I encourage everyone to not only spread the word, but to donate in any way you can – either with a $5 text donation or with food.
Best,
Kari Rippetoe
