New Feed the Hungry in America Initiative in Dayton, Ohio

This was successfully accomplished in their first year, and through new initiatives, they continue to grow in their operations. The latest Feed the Hungry in America program initiative includes plans to open a food pantry in Dayton, Ohio in collaboration with the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community. They will be located at 637 Randolph Street in Dayton, Ohio. This is one of many Feed the Hungry in America pantries underway across the country.

These newly launched projects generally serve the local community for several hours once a month. Additionally, Humanity First volunteers across America have held local food drives to support these efforts.
