At BAMKO, giving back is ingrained in our company culture. That’s why, each quarter, we dedicate 1% of all BAMKO Collection sales to organizations who go above and beyond to make a positive impact. We’re proud to announce that starting this month, our efforts will support No Kid Hungry in their tireless fight against childhood hunger in the United States.
The Crisis of Childhood Hunger
The stark reality is that 1 in 5 children in the United States faces hunger. That’s over 13 million young lives affected, a number that has alarmingly risen in recent years. For many, hunger – or food insecurity – means missing meals entirely, while others experience the daily uncertainty of whether there will be enough food to go around. Parents grapple with impossible choices between feeding their children and paying bills, leaving kids vulnerable to the devastating effects of malnutrition. This is a crisis that demands our immediate attention and action.
Our Commitment to Giving Back
BAMKO firmly believes that hunger is a solvable problem. That’s why we’re committed to doing our part by donating 1% of all BAMKO Collection sales throughout Q3 to No Kid Hungry.
No Kid Hungry: Champions for Children
No Kid Hungry is a national campaign driven by Share Our Strength, a nonprofit organization dedicated to solving problems of hunger and poverty in the U.S. and worldwide. Their mission is simple yet profound: to ensure that every child in America has consistent access to the healthy food they need to thrive.
No Kid Hungry is a powerful force for change. Through innovative programs and unwavering advocacy, they’re tackling childhood hunger from every angle:
- Connecting Millions to Meals: No Kid Hungry partners with schools, community organizations, and policymakers to expand access to breakfast, lunch, afterschool meals, and summer meals, ensuring that children have nutritious options throughout the year.
- Empowering Families: They help families navigate federal nutrition programs, providing vital resources for those struggling to put food on the table.
- Driving Policy Change: They advocate for strong legislation and funding that prioritizes child nutrition, working tirelessly to create a future where no child goes hungry.
No Kid Hungry prioritizes three sectors: feeding children at school, over summer vacation, and at home. They offer an array of resources for each sector, and work with notable organizations including The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), and other federal programs including the school breakfast program, the national summer meals program and the afterschool meals program.
Why Giving Back Matters
Investing in children’s well-being is an investment in our collective future. When children have access to nutritious food, they’re better equipped to learn, grow, and reach their full potential. By supporting No Kid Hungry, we’re not just filling stomachs; we’re nurturing the next generation of leaders, innovators, and compassionate citizens.
