Random Acts’ next stop for #RaNoHungryChild was Phoenix, Arizona at St. Mary’s Food Bank, where they are “determined to end hunger in Arizona.” This organization is a member of Feeding America, and it serves families in the greater Phoenix metro area as well as nine surrounding counties —including those with the highest poverty levels.
As the site of the very first food bank, St. Mary’s continues to be a leader in its mission to end hunger through food distribution, programs targeting child hunger, and training sessions that give adults the opportunity to gain experience in the food industry. After the students finish the 12-week culinary training program, where they learn to cook while also feeding hungry families, St. Mary’s assists the new professionals with job placement.
