It is hard to believe in a great country like ours, 1 in 6 people struggles with not having enough food.
Tim McGraw
According to Feeding America, approximately 5.7 million different people receive emergency food assistance from the organization in any given week.
When I saw this fact it totally broke my heart. I am astounded and saddened by this statistic. What can we do about it? Luckily, Hamburger Helper has made it easy to create a quick delicious meal but alao an easy way to help out with the hunger issue.
To raise awareness about the national issue of hunger, Hamburger Helper® is partnering with GRAMMY® Award-winning singer, songwriter and actor Tim McGraw to help Feeding America deliver millions of meals to local food banks through the Show Your Helping Hand™ campaign. McGraw will lend his voice to the campaign through a Public Service Announcement which will be distributed nationwide.
Support the campaign by submitting codes from specially marked boxes of Hamburger Helper at http://www.showyourhelpinghand.com/ or by logging on to make a donation. Hamburger Helper has already donated more than half a million dollars and will contribute up to an additional $100,000 to Feeding America through this program. Don’t think one code will make a difference? The 17 cents Hamburger Helper donates per code is enough for Feeding America to deliver one meal to a local food bank.
You also can an autographed copy of Tim McGraw’s “Southern Voice” CD by visiting. http://www.showyourhelpinghand.com//

It's amazing how many people in this country don't have enough to eat. And the numbers are only growing in these difficult times. Wonderful for you to start the holiday season this way!
