FoodFinder 🍽

Amidst surging food prices, FoodFinder answered the call. We served more than 900,000 Americans in 2022 with our food pantry locator thanks to your support!

WE DID IT! In just 2 weeks we've raised $15k for hunger relief, far beyond our $10k goal. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone who donated or spread the word. Next up: a new $20k stretch goal!

Today's the big day: #GivingTuesday! FoodFinder is raising $10,000 this year to connect 200k Americans to free food. Spread the word to friends/family, or if you're ready to give, click here: flipcause.com/secure/cause_p…

From all of us at FoodFinder, Happy Thanksgiving!

ICYMI...we had quite the action-packed October! Jack and FoodFinder were invited to attend both the White House Summit on Hunger and the Forbes Under 30 Summit to join the likes of Pres. Biden, Cory Booker, and Megan Thee Stallion!

First off, FoodFinder is thrilled to announce that we've now served 2 MILLION Americans since we launched! What's more: nearly *90%* of that impact took place during COVID & inflation.

Mark your calendars! #GivingTuesday is 2 weeks away on November 29th, and FoodFinder is pulling out all the stops. Every day between now and then, we'll share the highlights of our year and the impact YOU helped make possible!
