AMANO’S THE FUTURE ISN’T HUNGRY.
#FUTUREISNTHUNGRY
1 in 5 children in America is hungry. Brittany’s BIG IDEA, The Future Isn’t Hungry, is to pack
bags with nutritious shelf-stable foods and provide recipes for healthy meals.
ANYONE CAN ACTIVATE: ON YOUR OWN OR IN A GROUP. EACH BAG MUST HAVE AT LEAST 5
ITEMS FROM THE LIST BELOW. HERE ARE 6 EASY STEPS TO GET STARTED:
Step 1: Identify the food items you want from The Future Isn’t Hungry List.
Step 2: Collect food items and bags- donations, food drive, sponsorships from local grocery stores!
Step 3: Pack Future Isn’t Hungry Bags
Step 4: Print a healthy recipe(s) and labels for your bag(s). You can always write them by hand,
too!
Step 5: Choose a site in your community that would benefit from your Future Isn’t Hungry Bag(s)
and deliver The Future Isn’t Hungry Bags to a chosen site
Step 6: Share your impact at lead360.jeffersonawards.org and on social media with
