In October 2026, a 13-year-old resident of Phoenix packed food bags as part of her birthday celebration, joining United Food Bank’s Hunger Action Month drive to supply food to families across Arizona.
United Food Bank conducts Hunger Action Month each October, inviting community members to donate and help fight childhood hunger throughout the state.
The teen’s birthday effort was intended to contribute to relief for Arizona families and to support the broader goal of reducing childhood hunger during the month.
