Continue Making an Impact This Hunger Action Month

As August and National Make-A-Will Month come to a close, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who took the time to secure their future and consider how they can positively impact our community for years to come. While Make-A-Will Month may be over, the chance to make a lasting difference doesn’t end here.

September is Hunger Action Month, a time when we come together to raise awareness and take meaningful steps to combat hunger in our community. This is the perfect time to reflect on how you can continue impacting lives— now and in the future.

One impactful way to make a lasting difference is by including an optional legacy gift in your will. By doing so, you can help the Fredericksburg Regional Food Bank sustain our fight against food insecurity long into the future. Just imagine the ripple effect your gift could have, ensuring that every neighbor in the Central Rappahannock River Region has access to nutritious food and a chance to thrive.

If you haven’t yet made or updated your will, our partners at FreeWill offer a simple, trusted tool that can help you do so in just 20 minutes. It’s an easy way to protect your loved ones and create a lasting legacy in our community—all at no immediate cost to you.

Why Now?

• Security: Ensure your financial and healthcare decisions are communicated clearly.
• Peace of Mind: Know that your loved ones will be supported in the years ahead.
• Impact: Leave a legacy that sustains our fight against hunger and creates a lasting, positive effect in our region.

As we continue our mission throughout Hunger Action Month, we invite you to join us in building a brighter, hunger-free future. Every action counts, whether it’s through volunteer work, advocacy, or a legacy gift.

If you have any questions or need guidance, feel free to reach out to me directly at achappell@fredfood.org.

Thank you for your ongoing support and commitment to a hunger-free future.

Together, we can build a thriving community—today, tomorrow, and long into the future.
