Beyoncé Knowles is partnering with Hamburger Helper and Feeding America to help deliver more than 3.5 million meals to local food banks through the "Show Your Helping Hand" Campaign.
Fans can support the campaign in three ways: by submitting codes from specially marked boxes of Hamburger Helper® online at www.showyourhelpinghand.com; by donating non-perishable food items at Beyoncé’s “I AM…” Tour concerts in select cities across the U.S.; or by logging on to www.showyourhelpinghand.com to donate money.
“Through the work I do with my Survivor Foundation, I’ve been committed to helping families get back on their feet in difficult times,” said Beyoncé. “That’s why I’m excited to get involved in this effort to help Feeding America deliver more than 3.5 million meals to local food banks. If we all show a helping hand, together we can make a difference in the fight against hunger."
According to Feeding America, hunger affects one in eight Americans, and the demand on local food banks has grown by more than 30 percent in the past year.
“In the coming months, we expect the need for food to be even greater as children on summer break lose access to school meal programs. And for the rest of this year and beyond, the economy will continue to present serious challenges,” explained Vicki B. Escarra, president and CEO, Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief charity. “By getting involved in the Show Your Helping Hand™ campaign, Americans can really make a difference in the fight against hunger.”
