RHP Properties' Generous Support for No Kid Hungry
On December 3, 2024, RHP Properties displayed its commitment to social responsibility by donating $10,000 to No Kid Hungry, an organization dedicated to eradicating childhood hunger in the United States. This donation is part of RHP's ongoing efforts, marking their fifth contribution to the nonprofit since 2020, which brings their total donations to over $53,000. The alarming statistics from the USDA indicate that nearly 14 million children in America are facing hunger – that’s approximately 1 in 5 kids. The current figures show a troubling increase in food insecurity from the previous year, underscoring the critical need for contributions such as RHP's.
The Impact of Donations
The funds provided by RHP Properties will help No Kid Hungry tackle the underlying causes of hunger and expand their reach to children in need. The organization focuses on supporting school and community meal programs, providing grants to improve accessibility of food sourcing, and advocating for stronger policies that assist families in putting meals on their tables. This multifaceted approach is crucial in a country where food scarcity affects so many.
Ross Partrich, CEO of RHP Properties, shared his perspective on Giving Tuesday, a globally recognized day of philanthropy. He explained,
"This movement inspires us to come together and make meaningful impacts as the holiday season begins. By supporting No Kid Hungry, we not only enhance meal access for children but also reflect on the importance of tackling hunger issues head-on.”
The sentiment was echoed by Carla Warner, Senior Director of Revenue Innovation at Share Our Strength, which operates the No Kid Hungry initiative. She stated,
“As families gather during the holiday season, many wonderful memories are formed over shared meals. Unfortunately, this is not the reality for all families, as hunger continues to affect nearly 14 million children.” With the support of organizations like RHP Properties, No Kid Hungry can continue its mission to ensure that children nationwide have the nutritious food they need to thrive.
