Meals Matter existe gracias a nuestro club local de Kiwanis. No nos dieron una estad&iacute;stica, nos abrieron los ojos a cu&aacute;n real era la inseguridad alimentaria para las personas a nuestro alrededor, ni&ntilde;os con los que &iacute;bamos a la escuela. Eso fue lo que nos impuls&oacute; a empezar, y nos llev&oacute; directamente a Way Forward, la despensa que nos dio nuestra primera asociaci&oacute;n real y nos ense&ntilde;&oacute; c&oacute;mo se hace realmente este trabajo. Nuestro objetivo en el primer a&ntilde;o parec&iacute;a casi vergonzosamente peque&ntilde;o en papel: recaudar 100 libras de comida y $100. Recaudamos 1,700 libras y $600 solo en nuestra primera campa&ntilde;a. Desde entonces, Meals Matter ha crecido en m&aacute;s de 25 cap&iacute;tulos en 8 estados y 2 pa&iacute;ses, totalmente administrados por estudiantes. Ahora trabajamos junto a Way Forward, Second Harvest, Metro Market y muchos otros incre&iacute;bles socios que nos han respaldado en cada paso. Juntos, hemos recolectado m&aacute;s de 170,000 libras de comida y recaudado $80,000 para nuestras comunidades, y cada d&oacute;lar de eso fue directamente a las personas que lo necesitaban. Ni un centavo nos ha financiado. Todo se destin&oacute; a la misi&oacute;n. Eso es de lo que estamos m&aacute;s orgullosos. Y tambi&eacute;n es por eso que ahora estamos pidiendo ayuda. Acabamos de convertirnos en una organizaci&oacute;n oficial 501(c)(3). Es el mayor hito en la historia de Meals Matter, y abre la puerta para que crezcamos m&aacute;s r&aacute;pido que nunca, m&aacute;s cap&iacute;tulos, m&aacute;s escuelas asociadas, m&aacute;s estudiantes dispuestos a liderar. Este a&ntilde;o, nuestro objetivo es abrir 50 nuevos cap&iacute;tulos. Pero convertirnos en una organizaci&oacute;n real significa que finalmente necesitamos financiar nuestras propias operaciones tambi&eacute;n, la infraestructura que permite que m&aacute;s de 25 cap&iacute;tulos dirigidos por estudiantes funcionen bien, no solo las campa&ntilde;as de comida en s&iacute;. Esta es tu oportunidad de financiar la base, no solo una campa&ntilde;a &uacute;nica. Una donaci&oacute;n aqu&iacute; ayuda a construir algo dise&ntilde;ado para durar, dirigido por estudiantes que ya han demostrado que cumplen, y respaldado por socios que creyeron en nosotros desde el primer d&iacute;a. Empezamos esto porque no pod&iacute;amos apartar la mirada de lo que Kiwanis nos mostr&oacute;. Ven a construir el pr&oacute;ximo cap&iacute;tulo con nosotros.

No el tipo automatizado, el tipo real, de mi parte. Tu donaci&oacute;n est&aacute; alimentando a alguien esta semana. No el pr&oacute;ximo trimestre, no &quot;eventualmente&quot;, esta semana. Ese es el objetivo de Meals Matter y t&uacute; lo hiciste posible. Comenc&eacute; esto porque estaba cansado de que el hambre fuera un tema de conversaci&oacute;n en lugar de un problema resuelto. Personas como t&uacute; son la diferencia entre las dos cosas. As&iacute; que gracias por poner tu dinero donde cuenta..Por favor, cont&aacute;ctanos si tienes alguna pregunta, de nuevo, ninguna palabra puede expresar cu&aacute;n agradecidos estamos. Con gratitud, Meals Matter

Meals Matter existe gracias a nuestro club local de Kiwanis.

Eso fue lo que nos impulsó a empezar, y nos llevó directamente a Way Forward, la despensa que nos dio nuestra primera asociación real y nos enseñó cómo se hace realmente este trabajo. Nuestro objetivo en el primer año parecía casi vergonzosamente pequeño en papel: recaudar 100 libras de comida y $100. Recaudamos 1,700 libras y $600 solo en nuestra primera campaña.

Juntos, hemos recolectado más de 170,000 libras de comida y recaudado $80,000 para nuestras comunidades, y cada dólar de eso fue directamente a las personas que lo necesitaban. Ni un centavo nos ha financiado. Todo se destinó a la misión. Eso es de lo que estamos más orgullosos. Y también es por eso que ahora estamos pidiendo ayuda. Acabamos de convertirnos en una organización oficial 501(c)(3). Es el mayor hito en la historia de Meals Matter, y abre la puerta para que crezcamos más rápido que nunca, más capítulos, más escuelas asociadas, más estudiantes dispuestos a liderar. Este año, nuestro objetivo es abrir 50 nuevos capítulos. Pero convertirnos en una organización real significa que finalmente necesitamos financiar nuestras propias operaciones también, la infraestructura que permite que más de 25 capítulos dirigidos por estudiantes funcionen bien, no solo las campañas de comida en sí. Esta es tu oportunidad de financiar la base, no solo una campaña única. Una donación aquí ayuda a construir algo diseñado para durar, dirigido por estudiantes que ya han demostrado que cumplen, y respaldado por socios que creyeron en nosotros desde el primer día. Empezamos esto porque no podíamos apartar la mirada de lo que Kiwanis nos mostró. Ven a construir el próximo capítulo con nosotros.

Two high schoolers, one food drive, and a goal so small it&#39;s almost funny in hindsight: 100 pounds of food, $100 raised. We hit 1,700 pounds and $600 instead. That gap between what we expected and what actually happened is the whole story of Meals Matter, and it started in Middleton. We started because we saw kids we went to school with going hungry and couldn&#39;t look away. A conversation at our local Kiwanis club opened our eyes to how widespread it really was, and it led us straight to Way Forward, the food pantry that gave us our first real partnership and taught us how this work actually gets done. Since then, Meals Matter has grown into 25+ chapters across 8 states and 2 countries, entirely run by students. No adults telling us what to do. No corporate structure calling the shots. Just kids who saw a problem and decided to fix it themselves. We now work alongside predominantly Way Forward &amp; Metro Market, and partners who&#39;ve backed us at every step. Together we&#39;ve collected over 170,000 pounds of food and raised $80,000 for our communities. Every dollar of that went straight back out to the people who needed it. Not one cent has ever funded us. It all went to the mission. That&#39;s the part we&#39;re proud of most. It&#39;s also why we&#39;re asking Lanse Creuse North for help now. We just became an official 501(c)(3). It&#39;s the biggest milestone in Meals Matter&#39;s history, and it opens the door to grow faster than ever: more chapters, more partner schools, more students stepping up to lead. This year alone, we&#39;re aiming to open 50 new chapters. Here&#39;s what that means for a donation to our Lanse Creuse North chapter right now: every dollar goes straight toward fighting food insecurity and toward empowering the next student to step up and lead a chapter like this one. This isn&#39;t a donation to some distant headquarters. It&#39;s a donation to the town where Meals Matter began, to kids from Middleton who decided hunger was a problem worth solving, and to every student after them who gets to do the same. Right now we&#39;re running our Back to School fundraiser, August 15 through September 15, and Lanse Creuse North is in it too. We&#39;re going head to head in a friendly competition against other schools&#39; chapters to see who can rally their community the hardest this month. It&#39;s good-natured, but this is the chapter that started it all, so let&#39;s show everyone else how Middleton does it. We started this because we couldn&#39;t look away from what we saw around us, right here in Lanse Creuse North. You don&#39;t have to look away either. Come build the next chapter with us. Feel free to reach us at 608-630-0915 with any questions!! Meals-Matter.org

Your donation is feeding someone this week. Not next quarter, not &ldquo;eventually,&rdquo; this week. That&rsquo;s the whole point of Meals Matter and you just made it happen. I started this because I was sick of hunger being a talking point instead of a solved problem. People like you are the difference between the two. So thank you for putting your money where it counts. Please reach out if you have any questions, again, no words can amount to how thankful we are. With gratitude, Meals Matter
