​Pack a Lunch!
Skip eating out and pack your lunch a few times this month. Then, consider donating all, or a portion of, your saved lunch money to Hunger Fighters to help us stock our pantry and keep our programs running.

Even better, organize a potluck at your workplace and get your team or employees to pool the cash they would've spent on lunch and donate it to the pantry.

Follow us on Social Media!

A great and easy way to spread the word about the work we're doing at HFO is to follow, like, and share our social media posts. 
Financial donations to Hunger Fighters Oregon during Hunger Action Month will go toward stocking the pantry with our most needed items, ongoing programming costs, and pantry operations. Your support will help ensure that HFO remains as sustainable and reliable resource for those who need it most.
​We appreciate your support!
