September is Hunger Action Month, and for hundreds of thousands of people in Hawaii, a daily meal isn’t a choice between different dishes. It’s a choice between food and other crucial needs — like medicine, electricity or childcare.

Food shouldn’t be an impossible choice. After a tumultuous year, Hawai‘i’s hunger crisis is far from over. COVID-19 has made the need for food assistance even greater, and 1 in 6 Hawaii residents are paying to live life by sacrificing their meals.

Hawaii Foodbank will continue to take action to help people achieve long-term food security, so they no longer have to make such tough decisions. This September, join them for Hunger Action Month.
