We did it - 1.3 M meals!
For five weeks every year, the legal community comes together for one purpose: to end hunger in San Francisco and Marin, where one in four people is at risk of hunger.
This year, 61 firms, organizations and companies participated in the friendly competition to fundraise for and contribute volunteer hours to the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank. And the results (drum roll, please …):
$673,662 Contributed – equivalent to 1,347,324 meals for our neighbors in need in San Francisco and Marin Counties.
