Network to End Hunger Seeks Donations This #GivingTuesday to Provide Holiday Meals Delivered to Home Bound and Transportation-Disadvantaged Families with Kids

Network to End Hunger’s Meals On Wheels for Kids program ensures every Tampa Bay family has a nutritious and joyous holiday season.

Tampa, FL, November 20, 2021 --(PR.com)-- On November 30th Tampa Bay Network to End Hunger (TBNEH), a tri-county leader in hunger relief, research, and program development, will participate in #GivingTuesday to raise funds to provide home-delivered holiday meals to families with children through their Meals On Wheels for Kids’ (MOW4Kids) Holidays On Wheels program. Each year, this global day of giving takes place on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, offering individuals, organizations, and corporations to give back to the community after the shopping frenzy of Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

The MOW4Kids Holidays On Wheels program delivered a full holiday meal to 3,000 homebound and transportation-disadvantaged families with children living in Tampa Bay in November and will again on December 13 with the addition of gifts for the kids. Volunteers deliver Holidays On Wheels to those that are homebound and do not have access to a reliable vehicle to get to other holiday meal distribution sites.

"In Tampa Bay, thousands of kids and their families live in fear of going hungry this holiday season," said Caitlyn Peacock, Executive Director of TBNEH. "Most of us look forward to enjoying a delicious meal during the holidays, yet many of our neighbors will not have food on their table. The Meals on Wheels for Kids’ Holidays On Wheels program, in partnership with Metropolitan Ministries, ensures homebound and transportation-disadvantaged kids and their families have a healthy and happy holiday season. We hope you will join us in making #GivingTuesday count for community members in need."
