Advocating for a Hunger-Free Kentucky

We believe every Kentuckian deserves reliable access to nutritious produce and healthy meals.
Feeding Kentucky advocates for vital programs to fight hunger in the Commonwealth by supporting our farmers and the thousands of Kentuckians facing hunger.

Feeding Kentucky’s federal policy priorities include:

  • Supporting the Farm Bill
  • Protecting food procurement programs from budget cuts in DC

Feeding Kentucky’s statewide policy priorities include:

  • Protecting the safety net: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
  • The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP)
  • Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP)

What It Means for Me:

Hunger is often invisible. Right now, your neighbors could be facing empty pantries and hungry nights.
Children, senior citizens or low-income individuals are often the most impacted by hunger. Without proper legislation, access to nutritious food may be a challenge. Your civic engagement is a powerful tool to turn compassion into action.

How To Take Action:

We invite you to take a stand with us to end hunger! There are many ways to get involved, including contacting your state legislators and telling them you support Feeding Kentucky’s policy priorities, sharing our advocacy posts on social media, attending Feeding Kentucky events, volunteering your time and money to support our food banks–the list is endless.
