Impact
The numbers of people needing assistance from the Oregon Food Bank Network are increasing daily. The mission of Farmers Ending Hunger to add more high quality food to the network is more critical than ever. The Farmers Ending Hunger website is a powerful tool for maximizing name recognition and increasing donations, making it possible to fulfill that mission to get more food into Oregon Food Bank Network. This grant paid for adding individual stories of many of the contributing farmers to the web site. Farmers Ending Hunger is hoping that when people come to the website and can read about the farmers who contribute their crops so that Oregonians in need can be fed, they will be inspired to donate or “Adopt an Acre”.
