How to make your first contribution

Tenacity is an organization that aims to unite people to tackle ongoing problems through small steps. So, let’s shift onto the growing problem of hunger.

“A child dies from hunger every 10 seconds.”

“Poor nutrition and hunger is responsible for the death of 3.1 million children a year.”

Hunger is a vast problem and we are losing countless people to hunger every day. Thus, as a society it is our responsibility to help reduce hunger. Even small contributions can make an immense impact in people’s lives.

Here are steps you can take:

1. Reduce food waste

It is crucial to only buy and cook as much food that you can finish. You can create a meal plan to ensure you only buy what you need. Even if you do get leftovers, then you can give to anyone who may need it; however, make sure it's safe to consume and is sanitary.

2. Donate food to local food pantries

You can combine with your friends/family and donate food items together. Food pantries can be extensive and significantly help provide food to those who need it.

3. Volunteer with organizations

• You can volunteer by participating in tenacity’s initiatives that are focused on such issues. You can even participate in the “Tackle Hunger” initiative!

• You can volunteer with other organizations in your community or online. Some possibilities are Feeding America, World Food Programme, The Hunger Project, etc.

4. Donate to ongoing fundraisers

Tenacity started its own fundraiser with the goal of raising $500. Use the link to donate towards the tenacity fundraiser: https://fundraise.actionagainsthunger.org/fundraiser/anchal-anchal
