Every year, the country’s best chefs join together with one goal in mind: end childhood hunger in America by supporting No Kid Hungry Dinners presented by Citi.
In more than a dozen cities across the nation, guests enjoy a one-of-a-kind dining experience curated by each city’s premier culinary talent and participate in unique food, travel and lifestyle auctions – all while raising funds for No Kid Hungry, Share Our Strength’s campaign to end childhood hunger in America.
In San Antonio, we are proud to be hosted for the second time by Chef John Brand at Hotel Emma. In addition to delicious food and fine wines from participating chefs, guests will also enjoy the opportunity to bid in an exclusive live auction, and to learn more about the incredible work the No Kid Hungry Campaign has made towards ending childhood hunger in Texas and beyond.
No Kid Hungry Local Partners include: The Texas Hunger Initiative, Houston Food Bank, United Way of Metropolitan Texas, Be a Champion, USDA Southwest Regional Office, Dallas Coalition for Hunger Solutions, Children At Risk, Prosper Wasco, YMCA of Greater San Antonio and Wichita Falls Area Food Bank.
These are some statistics in Texas:
- 1 in 4 kids in Texas struggles with hunger.
- Only 62% of kids who qualitfy for free/reduced lunch are also getting school breakfast.
- Only 10% of kids who qualitfy for free/reduced lunch are also getting summer meals.
