Beneficiary

Funds raised through Share Our Strength's "Give Me Five" event are used to fund our work to end childhood hunger in our state as well as are awarded as grants to the most effective organizations working to end childhood hunger in Georgia and across America.

A large number of Georgia's children are in dire need. According to this year's KIDS COUNT report which tracks the well-being of America's children, Georgia ranked at nearly the bottom (42nd out of the 50 states). More than 22% of Georgia's children (567,992) are food insecure because they lack sufficient resources for life's basic necessities.

Share Our Strength®, a national nonprofit, is ending childhood hunger in America by connecting children with the nutritious food they need to lead healthy, active lives. Through its No Kid Hungry® Campaign—a national effort to end childhood hunger in America by 2015—Share Our Strength ensures children in need are enrolled in effective federal nutrition programs; invests in community organizations fighting hunger; teaches families how to cook healthy, affordable meals; and builds public-private partnerships to end childhood hunger, at the state and city level. Working closely with the culinary industry and relying on the strength of its volunteers, Share Our Strength hosts innovative culinary fundraising events and develops pioneering cause marketing campaigns that support No Kid Hungry.
