CARTHAGE, Mo. — With 813,840 Missourians labeled as “food insecure” according to a Map the Meal Gap 2018 study and a widely growing number due to circumstances surrounding the coronavirus pandemic, Missouri Farm Bureau Insurance recognizes the need to help out hungry families across the state. For the sixth consecutive year, team members are promoting donations from April 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021 to support Feeding Missouri and its many community affiliates as part of the Home Run Against Hunger campaign.
There are three ways to give this year. Text MOFB2021 to 44-321 and follow the prompts to utilize this new option. To donate online, visit: feedingmissouri.org/donate/ and mention Missouri Farm Bureau in the “Business Name” field on the form. Non-perishable food donations are also great and our offices will be serving as drop off locations this year.
In the first week of May, a statewide grand total of donations will be announced. Last year’s efforts, despite the pandemic conditions, garnered over a ton of food and $41,500.
Please take a moment to give between April 1, 2021 and April 30, 2021 and help us knock hunger out of the park!
