Top Five Anti-Hunger Opportunities in Utah

1. Help someone you know get food stamps

Why? Anyone who meets the financial requirements for the program is definitely in need of assistance. Helping them get food stamps will give them a stable source of nutritional assistance, ease the strain on charities, and even help stimulate the economy. Use our Food Stamp Calculator to find out if someone you know might qualify.

2. Work to get a Summer Food program started in your area

3. Ask your child’s principal about the Fresh Fruits & Vegetables Program

Learn about it HERE.

4. Start some sort of garden efforts in your neighborhood.

This can be anything from sharing your backyard this way www.sharingbackyards.com or this way www.backyardurbangardens.com to a more formal and organized effort. Be sure to connect with Wasatch Community Gardens if you happen to live near Salt Lake City. Get a spot in a community garden.  And consider donating some of your harvest to pantries through our Grow-a-Row program.

5. Watch the UAH website and Facebook Page for current issues and advocacy opportunities.
