The statistics are staggering.  For 1 in 6 Americans, facing hunger is a reality.  That translates to nearly 13 million American families struggling with hunger each day.  In New York State alone, there are 2,757, 270 people that do not have access to nutritionally adequate foods.  That puts a lot of demand and attention on local food banks in the Greater Binghamton area every day.

The HAWK is teaming up with General Mills and Big Machine Records' artists, Florida Georgia Line, Band Perry, Rascal Flatts, Brantley Gilbert, Eli Young Band and more to help put food on the table for those in need here in the Greater Binghamton area and across the country.

Here's how you can help today.  Purchase specially marked General Mills products (Cheerios, Betty Crocker, Pillsbury, Green Giant, Ocean Spray, Yoplait), and simply enter the codes on the General Mills web site.  Each code you enter will help Feeding America secure 5 meals to your local food bank.  It's that easy!
