Strike Out Hunger

REDS FANS DONATED 14,245 LBS OF FOOD FOR NEIGHBORS IN NEED

Thank you Cincinnati Reds, Kroger, WLWT, 700 WLW, and Chick-fil-A for helping us Strike Out Hunger this summer at Great American Ball Park! We are so grateful to everyone who stepped up to the plate to support our Catino Choice Food Pantry and neighbors across Greater Cincinnati.

Strike Out Hunger was another home run this year, with generous Cincinnati Reds fans putting up big numbers. Together, 3,865 people donated 14,245 pounds of food, enough to provide 11,869 meals for neighbors in need!

In June and July alone, we served 404 more households than during the same period last year. In July, we served a record 3,013 households, surpassing the previous high of 2,949 households set in October during the SNAP benefit suspension. This summer, your help is needed more than ever.

HELP US REACH OUR GOAL

Our goal is to raise $50,000, which can provide $294,000 worth of food for families facing hunger. You can still join the fight against hunger by making a financial gift.

YOUR GIFT WILL BE MATCHED

Thanks to Kroger, every donation will be matched, doubling your impact for families in need this summer.

Let’s knock summer hunger out of the park. Together, we can make sure more local families have the food they urgently need.
