ORGANIZATION: Hunger Free America

The Start By Asking Campaign is working to connect the most vulnerable New Yorkers with benefits for which they are likely eligible. Working closely with the City of New York, community partners, and Hunger Free America, Start By Asking is looking for volunteers to talk to community members and inform them of and screen them for benefits such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), and the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC).

Onsite training will be provided at the start of your shift. Learn more about Start By Asking here!

Mission Statement

HUNGER FREE AMERICA is a national nonprofit group building a nonpartisan, grassroots membership movement to enact the policies and programs needed to end domestic hunger and ensure that all Americans have sufficient access to nutritious food.

Description

HUNGER FREE AMERICA (formerly known as the New York City Coalition Against Hunger) is a national nonprofit group building a nonpartisan, grass-roots membership movement to enact the policies and programs needed to end domestic hunger and ensure that all Americans have sufficient access to nutritious food.

Our long-term goal is not just to ameliorate the problem, but also to build the people’s movement necessary to enact the economic and public policies needed to end hunger entirely. Given that hunger drains our economy and tears at our moral and civic fabric, we know that eliminating it will boost the nation both economically and spiritually. Towards that end, we’ve adopted the motto: "Ending hunger lifts us all."
