Missouri 4-H continues its partnership with Feeding Missouri and the Missouri Farmers Care Drive to Feed Kids.
To date, efforts have raised more than 400,000 meals to feed Missourians. According to 4-H Feeding Missouri coordinator Anne Reeder, the third annual food drive runs January through April to allow plenty of time for clubs to plan and carry out their activities.
During the four-month campaign, more than 1,600 Missouri 4-H clubs and groups, serving youths ages 5-18, will engage in a friendly service-learning competition to see which county can contribute the most food, cash donations and volunteer hours. The goal for 2021 is to raise 500,000 meals.
