Helping End Senior Hunger in Cabarrus County
March for Meals
March for Meals is an annual national campaign to raise awareness of senior hunger and to encourage action on a local level. Senior nutrition programs across the United States promote March for Meals in their local communities through public events, partnerships with local businesses, volunteer recruitment and fundraising initiatives.
The campaign takes place in the month of March because it was during this month in 1972 that the law was enacted that included senior meal programs in the Older Americans Act.
