After attending the Akron Canton Regional Foodbank Harvest for Hunger kickoff luncheon, Rotarian Katy Miller brought to Club President Tom the idea of collecting Happy Dollars for the month of April for the Akron-Canton Regional Foodbank.
They are able to take $1 and turn that into 3 meals! That's right....One dollar = 3 meals. They can accomplish this with their bulk purchasing and agreements with their suppliers.
2023 proved to be the highest demand of all time, more than 3 million visits were made to the hunger relief network the Akron Canton Regional Food Bank is a part of.
Families should not have to choose between nourishing food and rent. Every little bit helps and Akron Rotarians are here to do what we can.
So let's make March HAPPY! You can also pay Venmo or PayPal payment to Katy Miller if you don't carry cash: @RadiantStylebyKaty
Every Tuesday this month, Happy Dollars collected will go to the Food Bank for their campaign!
President Tom also announced that the club will match total happy dollars collected this month!
