Join Us to Make a Difference

Taking a Bite Out of Hunger

Action is necessary to combat the very real issue of child hunger. CoreGiving is focused on hosting multiple annual programs that activate our network to inspire fundraising, raise awareness about how hunger affects U.S. children, and volunteer time to serve our communities. Our goal is to enable everyone to join in our mission, making a difference in communities that need our support and the lives of children who need food security as a baseline to thrive.

Our goal in 2023 is to provide 20 million meals to food-insecure households and dedicate 20,000 hours of hunger-relief volunteer service.

Annual Bracket Battle

Bracket Battle is CoreGiving's largest annual fundraiser. It capitalizes on the fun of March Madness® and raises funds to feed children in need. Supporters are invited to join CoreGiving's bracket pool through CBS Sports and compete for all-important bragging rights. Brackets are free to create and donations are strongly encouraged.

CoreGiving Day

CoreGiving Day is an opportunity for all CoreGiving partner employees to volunteer at local food banks. 2021 was the inaugural year, with just over 1,000 employees volunteering with 24 hunger-relief organizations in 19 cities nationwide. Our third annual event in October 2023 mobilized more than 2,400 volunteers who donated their time to 71 organizations in 63 cities, making more than 800,000 meals accessible for neighbors in need.

Hunger Action Month

Every year in September, in honor of Hunger Action Month, we partner with local food banks in our communities to bring awareness to child hunger. 100% of all food donations from our food drives directly benefit families and children in need.

The need in our city during this time is overwhelming, but because of the generous response from friends like you, we have been able to set up and help feed our neighbors who need us.
