Food from the Bar

Legal community comes together to fight hunger
How it works: Food from the Bar is a friendly competition among San Diego’s legal professionals. Each team competes to see who can raise the most funds, volunteer the most hours, and donate the most food for Feeding San Diego. The final total will determine the Top Team, which will take home the Food from the Bar Plaque and bragging rights.
A team could be a law firm, insurance company, legal staffing agency, legal association, or even an individual legal professional. All teams work to maximize their fundraising efforts through peer-to-peer campaigning throughout June. Create your team page, and get ready to start competing against your fellow legal colleagues!

Why it Matters
Inflation has become impossible to ignore. Throughout the country, families are watching the prices of nearly everything soar. Food budgets simply don’t stretch as far or buy as much as last year. Inflation, which includes staggering gas prices here in California, continues to create ripple effects throughout everyone’s lives. These price increases are especially challenging for those who already relied on hunger-relief organizations like Feeding San Diego. In addition, many members of our community find themselves turning to food assistance for the first time.
