Sponsor an Individual
Food insecurity affects about 1 in 10 adults in our area, leading to serious health issues such as diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. A simple commitment of $10 per month can feed one person for an entire year, helping to alleviate both hunger and the chronic health problems tied to a lack of nutritious food. Your support can make a lasting difference in the lives of individuals facing food insecurity.
Why give?
Food insecurity is a pressing issue in our community, impacting roughly 1 in 10 adults in the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia's service area. For many, not having reliable access to nutritious meals leads to chronic health conditions like diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and obesity. But for just $10 a month, you can make a difference by providing enough food to sustain an individual for an entire year.
This commitment is vital because food insecurity doesn’t just affect hunger—it affects health and well-being. Adults without consistent access to nutritious food are more likely to develop long-term health problems that diminish their quality of life. By pledging $10 per month, you’re helping provide more than a meal. You’re offering the opportunity for someone to regain their health, stability, and dignity. A small monthly contribution can create lasting change for individuals in our community struggling with food insecurity.
