[{"type":"text","content":" CHESAPEAKE, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nDollar Tree and Family Dollar are proud to announce its new partnership with No Kid Hungry, a national campaign led by Share Our Strength, which is committed to ending childhood hunger and poverty. With a shared mission of ensuring equitable access to food and essential resources, the partnership aims to make an impact across the country by helping schools and communities feed millions of children every day.\n\n\nTo support this work, Dollar Tree and Family Dollar will make an initial donation of $350,000 to No Kid Hungry, which can help provide 3.5 million meals* to children, and drive awareness through an integrated in-store and online campaign. This holiday season, Coca-Cola is joining our effort to support No Kid Hungry with an additional $100,000 donation to help provide 1 million meals to children.\n\n\n“We are privileged to work with Share our Strength and the No Kid Hungry campaign in their critical work to solve childhood hunger and poverty in the United States,” said Jennifer Silberman, Chief Sustainability and Impact Officer, Dollar Tree, Inc. “For nearly 15 years, No Kid Hungry has been at the forefront of reversing the growing trend of food insecurity and childhood hunger to help ensure every child has access to the food they need for a happy and healthy future. By ensuring all kids get three meals a day and by helping families access critical programs such as Summer EBT and SNAP benefits, we can end childhood hunger in the United States.”\n\n\n“We are so grateful to be partnering with Dollar Tree and Family Dollar. They are stepping up to help ensure no child experiences hunger,” said Allison Shuffield, Managing Director, Corporate Partnerships, Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry campaign. “Together we can ensure a future where every child has three healthy meals a day, every day.”\n\n\nAs part of our partnership, Dollar Tree and Family Dollar are also supporting the Mayors Alliance to End Childhood Hunger. This nonpartisan coalition of mayors is working alongside No Kid Hungry to end childhood hunger and address food insecurity in cities across the nation. Through a combination of advocacy and community partnerships, the Mayors Alliance harnesses the individual and collective leadership of more than 445 mayors to drive action to end childhood hunger across the country.\n\n\nFor...
