Ending hunger at its root.
Advocacy
Policy Advocacy in Action
HUNGER IS A POLICY CHOICE
At Feeding the Carolinas, we know that hunger is bigger than any one person or circumstance. Hunger impacts both families and nations, communities and continents. A large- scale problem demands a large-scale solution. That’s why we’re dedicated to advocating for our neighbors facing hunger through widespread sustainable solutions.

Current Calls to Action
Lend your voice to the fight to end hunger.
SNAP STATE COST SHIFT
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) plays a critical role for many families who are working to bridge the gap during challenging times.
Take Action: Tell Congress
Every day, families across our communities work hard to put food on the table, care for loved ones and build stable futures. Tell Congress: Give states time to strengthen SNAP without disrupting food assistance for families.
FARM BILL-TEFAP + SNAP
The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) help people regain stability in their lives.
Take Action: Tell Your Senators
Sustained high food prices are forcing families and individuals to change how they shop and what they eat. Tell Senators: Strengthen TEFAP + SNAP in the next farm bill to help people experiencing hunger everywhere.
