September is Hunger Action Month!
100,000 Alaskans (15% of the population) faces food insecurity. St. Francis House Food Pantry helps so many households. In 2024, it distributed over 800,000 pounds of food to over 4,775 families. The number of those in need has leaped 19.5% since 2022 and continues to rise.
You can help fight hunger by supporting St. Francis House Food Pantry by directly donating, hosting a donation drive at your workplace or parish, or by spreading the word.
There are many ways to help! For more information, be sure to visit Catholic Social Services’ website: https://www.cssalaska.org/get-involved/hunger-action-month/
