What is ‘Put Child Hunger to Bed’?

Too many children will go to bed hungry tonight. Put Child Hunger to Bed is a year-round campaign, created by Feed the Children, to help make sure no child goes to bed hungry.

By providing food, household essentials, and educational materials Put Child Hunger to Bed helps children go to sleep nourished, supported, and ready to rise and thrive. Because when kids aren’t worrying about hunger at night, they’re better able to learn and grow during the day.

The need is urgent. Every child deserves the chance to thrive, but 1 in 5 children experience hunger right now here in the U.S., Together, we can help ensure fewer of them go to bed hungry.
