Description:

Project Bread prevents hunger by making it easier for everyone in Massachusetts to access and afford food with dignity. We go beyond giving out meals. Solving hunger requires addressing the problems at its core —affordability and access. We connect people and communities to big-impact federal nutrition programs and advocate for equitable policies. Our work boosts household food budgets today and informs enduring change for increased food security for all. 2020 Annual Report When the full impact of the pandemic reached our state, food insecurity doubled. Learn how with the support of our donors, Project Bread supported Massachusetts through the COVID-19 hunger crisis this past year. This legislative session, there are 5 state-level bills that offer significant opportunities to reduce hunger in Massachusetts and make a difference in the lives of thousands of families. We need your help to get these bills passed! No one in Massachusetts should be going hungry. There's enough food available to feed everyone in the Commonwealth, but the high cost of living and wages that haven’t kept up prevent households from affording basic necessities.Project Bread works with legislators to craft policy solutions to strengthen critical nutrition programs while engaging our partners to address the underlying factors contributing to hunger. Our advocacy is driven by the real-time challenges of people experiencing food insecurity, so we can permanently break the cycle of hunger.  The White House has released details on its American Families Plan (AFP), a legislative proposal that would significantly lower the rates of childhood hunger in Massachusetts and across the country.
