Collecting dollars on Hunger Awareness Day 2017.
Event Description:
June 1, 2018 has been proclaimed Hunger Awareness Day in
San Luis Obispo County.
“One Day, One Dollar, One Big Challenge to Feed the Hungry”
You can make a significant difference in the life of a hungry individual.
1 in 6 people are hungry in SLO County.
40% are children.
20% are seniors.
All are our neighbors.
This signature event takes place on the first Friday in June.  Over 25 donation sites are set up from 7am to 7pm in Cambria, Paso Robles, Atascadero, Morro Bay, Cayucos, Los Osos, San Luis Obispo, Grover Beach, Arroyo Grande, Pismo Beach, and Nipomo.  With live radio and TV coverage and a large social media presence, the community support from businesses, clubs, schools, civic groups, families and individuals is tremendous.  Our goal is $100,000…one dollar at a time.
