Why donate your lunch today?

Every gift matters to someone trying to feed their loved ones.

"I donated my lunch today. A veggie burrito, plus a little extra for good measure, makes $15 to help someone else get a good meal. It's a small gesture that can still make a difference."

~Alana, HFUSA VP of Fund Development & Marketing

Fast2Feed “Donate A Lunch” asks you to donate at least the value of one meal to feed someone else.


This month is Ramadan, when Muslims fast for over 12 hours a day. During this month, we raise awareness about hunger in the United States - and the funds to combat it.


Anyone can help. Donate to give someone else a meal before March 31st!
