Skip-A-Meal is an easy way for someone to donate and support the hunger-relief work of Treasure Coast Food Bank. The premise is simple. Skip a meal and donate the monetary savings of that missed meal to Treasure Coast Food Bank. By doing so, your contribution will help alleviate hunger in our community. This program is a great way for someone who can only give a little to contribute. Remember, every little bit helps in the fight against hunger and by skipping just one meal, you can make a difference and provide nutritious food to someone in need!
