🌟 Happy #InternationalWomensDay “If any female feels she needs anything beyond herself to legitimate and validate her existence, she is already giving away her power to be self-defining, her agency.” - bell hooks 💖 Let's #empower each other to own our narratives!

Ramadan Mubarak! 🌙 We wish a happy and blessed Ramadan to everyone observing the holy month.

Our Senior Meals program also includes a door-to-door delivery option. We also have amazing volunteers who help to deliver the meals. In the last three months of 2023, we delivered 3,577 meals to homebound individuals. In partnership with @soundgen and @ServeWA .

Today Andrew met with Santos Moreno, who is the Outreach Coordinator for the Office of Congresswoman @PramilaJayapal (WA-07). They discussed the increased need to serve fresh and healthy meals to families and individuals who cannot afford them.

During SY 2022-23, many students in need of #freeschoolmeals did not meet the household income eligibility level. A family of 3 that earns more than $30K/year did not qualify for free meals. ALL students should have the nutrition needed to learn & thrive. frac.org/blog/we-need-h…

We're thrilled to be hosting 15 HungerCorps this summer to help us with our Summer Eats program! Thanks @UnitedWayKC for supporting free summer meals.

Free summer meals for kids and parents are no hassle! No application, no sign-up… just stop by and enjoy. Program begins on June 28th. To learn more, call +1 206 538-6567 or visit hungerintervention.org/summer-eats.

⚠️ The health and well-being of our families is on the line. Pick up the phone 📱 Tell Congress to do the right thing and pass a clean raise on the debt ceiling – without any cuts! actionnetwork.org/call_campaigns…

Let's be clear. Access to food shouldn’t have a time limit. @POTUS @SenSchumer @RepJeffries @SpeakerMcCarthy @LeaderMcConnell we join @fractweets in urging passage of a #debtceiling bill that lets people have the food & resources they need to thrive. #SNAPMatters #CareNotCuts

Hungry People can’t wait! @POTUS @SenSchumer @RepJeffries @SpeakerMcCarthy @LeaderMcConnell pass a #DebtCeiling bill that ensures people have the nutrition & resources they need to thrive. #SNAPMatters #CareNotCuts frac.org/action

SNAP is critical in reducing poverty. Use your voice to prevent Congress from cutting SNAP in debt ceiling negotiations. Contact your Congress members, @POTUS, @SpeakerMcCarthy today to ask for a #DebtCeiling bill that does not increase poverty & hunger. #SNAPMatters #CareNotCuts
