On May 25, Metro joined the California Hunger Action Collation (CHAC) at the State Capitol for the 20th Annual Hunger Action Day! Every year in May, Metro ventures to Sacramento with a bus-load of participants to advocate for anti-hunger legislation that expands the reach of existing programs and policies to better the health of our community.
For nearly a decade, support from Mazon: A Jewish Response to Hunger has made it possible for the Central Valley to have a voice in hunger policy through Metro's Community Food Systems Program. We appreciate Mazon's continued support and the tireless efforts of the 2016 Hunger Action Collaborative: Fresno Hunger Count, The Fresno Youth Commission, CSU Fresno's Student Cupboard, Fresno City College's RAM Pantry and PASS Tutorial Center, Hinds Hospice and community partners.
