There are many ways you can get involved with Huddle for Hunger and help provide nutritious food to hungry children in our community:
Make your easy, secure donation today to help end child hunger in WNY. Tune in to News 4 Buffalo from September 14 through September 18 to learn more about our online giving campaign.
On September 18 and 19, join us for a food drive at Bills Stadium. Meet Buffalo Bills legends (including Jim Kelly on Friday) and mascot Billy Buffalo while enjoying music and entertainment from DJ Milk and The Stampede! The first 5,000 fans to donate will receive a Huddle for Hunger face mask (limit 2 per car). The Buffalo Bills have set a goal to collect 20 tons of food (40,000 pounds) during this year’s event, and we need your help to reach that goal!
For the safety of our community, this will be a “contactless” food drive. Fans are asked to enter the stadium parking lot through the Abbott Road entrance. Simply pull up in your vehicle and on-site volunteers will collect your donation. Staff and volunteers will be following recommended safety protocols.
