Stuffed eight ball squash

Hunger is a serious issue in America and we try to help in any which way we can.  What if I told you that just by shopping for your favorite brands that make up your weekly meal menu, you’d be helping fight hunger.

Yes, that’s right! From now until May 3, 2015,  Walmart has partnered with brands such as Unilever, General Mills, ConAgra, Kellogg’s, Kraft and Campbell’s to create awareness for this serious cause that I find near and dear to my heart.  Anyone who participates can make a difference in the lives of millions of families by contributing to helping secure 75 million meals for local food banks through Feeding America.

We Spark Change

All you have to do is purchase specially marked items with the “Fight Hunger Spark Change” logo on the package.  When you purchase just one item, you’d be securing one meal!  How wonderful is that? 1 Item = 1 meal.

Other ways to help: make a $1, $2, or $5 donation at time of check out  or round up your 6 friends, family or co-workers and share your photo via social media channels using the hashtag #WeSparkChange and #ShoptoGive.  Remember to make your photo public. Walmart will donate $10, up to $1,500,000, to Feeding America for every post shared. Don’t forget to spread the word. You can also visit the Walmart’s Fight Hunger Spark Change page and watch the meal tracker reach its goal.

There is nothing better than helping a great cause with important activities such as grocery shopping.  During my last trip to Walmart, I was able to shop for my items needed for this recipe while at the same time contributing such a wonderful campaign.
