## Story

Checkers & Rally’s first partnered with No Kid Hungry at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic by donating $100,000, which can help provide up to 1 million meals to children in need. Now through October 11th, the brand will donate $.10 for every Classic Cone sold at participating locations. Every 10 Classic Cones sold can help provide up to 10 meals for kids.*

“1 in 4 kids in the United States could face hunger this year due to the impact of COVID-19,” said Checkers & Rally’s CEO Frances Allen. “We’re proud to be partnering with No Kid Hungry for its Dine, Shop & Share campaign in order to provide kids with the meals they so desperately need.”

“Back to school” is looking different this year, but as children start the new school year, millions are still struggling to get the most important school supply: food. All kids need healthy food to do their best at school, wherever that may be.

“With millions more kids facing hunger this year, the work that we’re doing to feed them is even more pressing,” said Diana Hovey, Senior Vice President at Share Our Strength, the organization behind the No Kid Hungry campaign. “Thanks to generous partners like Checkers & Rally’s, we are ensuring that all children have access to healthy meals not just during this crisis but in the recovery to come.”

No child should go hungry in America. But in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, 1 in 4 kids could face hunger this year. No Kid Hungry is working to end childhood hunger by helping launch and improve programs that give all kids the healthy food they need to thrive. This is a problem we know how to solve. No Kid Hungry is a campaign of Share Our Strength, an organization committed to ending hunger and poverty.
