A few dollars can ensure that a child doesn’t go hungry tonight, and that’s not too much to ask.
San Antonio, TX (PRWEB) August 26, 2015
Maria Jackson Insurance Agency, a full service insurance provider with offices serving San Antonio and the surrounding communities, is announcing a joint charity effort with the San Antonio Food Bank that aims to provide food for hungry families in the area.
The San Antonio Food Bank partners with more than 500 agencies throughout 16 counties in Southwest Texas, providing food and grocery items to disadvantaged families. The standing mission of the SAFB is to combat hunger in Southwest Texas via comprehensive food distribution programs, community education, and advocacy.
On a weekly basis, the San Antonio Food Bank ensures that more than 58,000 underprivileged individuals receive enough to eat. The SAFB reports that in the San Antonio area alone 1 in 4 children and 1 in 5 seniors struggle with food insecurity.
“Ensuring that everyone in our community gets enough to eat is a group effort, and we’re calling on all San Antonio residents to pitch in and help feed hungry families,” says Maria Jackson, owner and manager of the Maria Jackson Insurance Agency. “A few dollars can ensure that a child doesn’t go hungry tonight, and that’s not too much to ask.”
To raise awareness and advocate for the San Antonio Food Bank, Jackson and her team are actively reaching out to community members, friends, and clients alike. Donations gathered are used to purchase food items for qualifying families, and efforts are underway to establish an online social media page that Jackson hopes will gather support from all across the state of Texas.
In addition to assisting the San Antonio Food Bank in their effort to feed hungry families in Southwest Texas, the Maria Jackson Insurance team is assisting a number of other local charities in an ongoing effort to produce positive change across the San Antonio area.
