Invest in a sure thing. Invest in tomorrow.




Putting food on the table is a challenge for too many families, especially those with children. Last year, more than 1 in 6 families struggled to secure the food they needed.

Childhood food insecurity comes with long-term consequences—from poor health to lower academic performance. This is why every week, Filling in the Blanks delivers high-quality food to over 8,000 students and their families across Fairfield, Westchester, and Putnam counties.  What began with just 50 children in 2013 has grown exponentially, a testament to the urgency of our mission and the unwavering support of our community.


In response to growing need, we added the Fresh Food on the Move Mobile Pantry late last year to bring fresh, nutritious food directly to families struggling to access these essentials. In partnership with local agencies providing housing assistance, health screenings, insurance information, and other vital services, the pantry also serves as a destination for wrap-around support. Research has shown—and families tell us—that the inability to afford food and other basics takes a huge emotional toll. Through expanded programs and a continued focus on equitable assistance, we’re enabling families to put food on the table and access needed support without added stress.


Invest in a sure thing. Invest in tomorrow. 


As we look to the future, your continued partnership is critical in ensuring no child in our community goes hungry. Help us secure a stronger community tomorrow by supporting Filling in the Blanks today.
