Hunger Never Takes a Holiday
As we prepare to celebrate the season of giving, we’re reminded that, for too many neighbors, the warmth and abundance of the holidays feel out of reach. Every day in our communities, families are making hard choices – between keeping the lights on and putting food on the table.
At Feeding America, Kentucky’s Heartland, we believe no one should have to face these difficult choices, especially during the holidays. With your help, we’re working to make sure that families across our 42 Kentucky counties have nutritious meals and renewed hope this holiday season.
Every Item of Food Counts.
At the end of the day, we can’t feed our neighbors facing hunger without the help of community members like you.
We are happy to accept food donations from manufacturers, retailers, produce growers, distributors and community members. Want to drop off food at our Elizabethtown distribution center? View our daily hours here.
