Calling all anti-hunger warriors: together we can do more. 

Making a difference, one project at a time.

OUR MISSION:
Wyoming Hunger Initiative has a simple mission: to end childhood hunger in Wyoming. We believe childhood hunger in Wyoming is a problem that can be solved together. We work to prevent food insecurity by increasing awareness and support for the work of local anti-hunger organizations statewide and by advocating for a future where no child faces the school day on an empty stomach.

Nourished kids, healthy families, and thriving communities: that's the goal of Wyoming Hunger Initiative.
