Thanks to incredible support from our community, we are proud to announce that more than 2.8 meals were raised for San Diegans in need since we launched the Month of a Million Meals campaign with ABC 10 NewsAzteca San Diego 15/KZSD and Live Well San Diego on November 19, 2016.

With the help of generous San Diegans and campaign partners ESET and Tri-City Medical Center, thousands of children, families and seniors in San Diego will receive nutritious food they need to help make ends meet.

FSD staff, volunteers and local celebrities raised more than 142,000 meals at the ABC 10 News telethon. The telethons featured special guests including Tom Delonge from Blink 182 and Angels & Airwaves, former San Diego Padres player Mark Loretta and winner of Master Chef, Claudia Sandoval.

These funds will have a tremendous impact for those we serve. Thank you for helping us raise healthy and nutritious  meals for local children, families and seniors facing hunger. We couldn’t have done this without your incredible support.
