Edmonds Rotary Club's Hunger Strike: Nearly at Our Goal!
The Edmonds Rotary Club is excited to share an update on our Hunger Strike fundraising campaign to help fight hunger in our community and beyond! Thanks to the generosity of our members and supporters, we've raised $700 so far. We're so close to reaching our $1000 goal. Just a little more to go!
The funds we raise will be split equally between No Kid Hungry on a national level and our local Edmonds Food Bank. These contributions will go directly toward feeding children and families in need, making a meaningful impact right where it's needed most.
If you'd like to help us cross the finish line, please consider a donation to Edmonds Rotary Hunger Strike. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to providing food security for more families. Let's rally together and make a lasting difference!
For more information or to contribute, contact Pat Shields or Dom Farmer.
Thank you for your continued support in our mission to fight hunger!
