Tackle Hunger 's mission is to unite all communities to tackle hunger and we help food charities gain millions to support their programs across the US, but food charities still end up turning away neighbors in need because they just don't have the budgets to take care of everyone who comes to ask for help. In addition to the annual Souper Bowl of Caring program, Tackle Hunger grows relationships with groups who can help food charities nationwide.
If we can help food charities cut their costs to purchase certain food items, they can afford to purchase more. We know freight prices can also be a killer to the options of other wholesale options. This collaboration with LA Foods offers food charities an alternative to higher priced avenues to getting the foods they most need without the bulky shipping costs!
