In recognition of Tackling Hunger Month and Children’s Health Month this October, ultrafast grocery delivery app Getir will allow customers to make direct donations to Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign. Additionally, Getir has made a contribution to No Kid Hungry, a national campaign working to end childhood hunger in the US. Getir’s funding will help support programs that feed children and can help provide 100,000 healthy meals*.

Along with its contribution, Getir is encouraging its customers to donate to No Kid Hungry while placing delivery orders through its app for the next two weeks, until October 25. Every dollar of customer contributions goes directly to No Kid Hungry and can help provide 10 meals to kids. Additionally, the Getir app will be given a temporary makeover to include No Kid Hungry campaign branding and exclusive artwork for the duration of the contribution period.

“Getir is delighted to contribute to No Kid Hungry and do our part to help end childhood hunger for good,” said Darienne Page, Head of Public Engagement at Getir. “As a rapid delivery service operating around the world, food insecurity is at the forefront of what we do on a daily basis. With No Kid Hungry, we know this contribution will go a long way toward providing healthy meals to children who need it most.”

Millions of children in the United States are facing hunger, including as many as 1 in 8 kids. Through a combination of emergency grants, strategic assistance, advocacy and awareness, No Kid Hungry works with communities across the country to improve and expand existing programs that feed kids school breakfast, after school suppers and snacks, and summer meals to ensure all kids have access to three healthy meals a day.

Getir’s contribution to No Kid Hungry comes at the heels of Hunger Action Month in September, when Getir announced a milestone of 80,000 pounds of food donated to local nonprofits in Chicago, New York, and Boston through its partnership with Copia, the world’s first end-to-end solution that addresses both food waste and hunger.
