John,

I’ve had a lot of roles in my life, but when it comes to the mission to end childhood hunger, we all have a role to play. So today, I want to make sure you don’t miss this opportunity:

Before this match opportunity expires at midnight, will you please make a gift now to help kids access the meals they need to thrive in school and beyond? Every single dollar you give today will be doubled by The Brighter Futures Fund, up to $25,000.

When kids don’t have enough to eat, they can’t learn or make the most of their time in school. Educators like seventh-grade science teacher Staci Okuno know firsthand just how much hunger can affect kids in the classroom.

She says that she can often hear their stomachs growling. And sometimes, they’re so tired because they haven’t had anything to eat that they’ll put their heads down and go to sleep.

Today, you can make a difference in classrooms like Staci’s.

When you think about school supplies, you probably think about backpacks, notebooks and pencils. But food is just as important. That’s why it’s so important to support school meals programs so more kids get access to them, and we all need to do our part.

That’s why I’m reaching out one last time before this crucial match offer ends at midnight. Please, John, make your first gift to have it go twice as far toward providing more children with access to consistent nutrition.

Thank you.
