Blanchet House is bringing Hunger Action Month to Portland, a nationwide campaign designed to inspire people to take action and raise awareness of hunger in the United States. Inflation and rising food costs are causing more people to go without hot meals, and our community relies on Blanchet House’s free cafe to fill the gaps. We’re mobilizing the community to take action and help end hunger for good.
Feeding America‘s annual nationwide campaign is designed to inspire people to take action and raise awareness of hunger in the United States. It’s hard to believe, but for millions of people in America, a daily meal is difficult to acquire for so many reasons. By taking action, together we can relieve suffering and hunger one plate at a time.
Blanchet House has four ways for people to take action this month.

Blanchet House put together a special hot dog dinner for homeless, hungry, and impoverished guests of its free cafe on Labor Day, Sept. 4 to kick off Hunger Action Month. Hundreds of hot dog buns were donated thanks to generous supporters as part of the Bring Blanchet House Buns drive.
383 hot dogs and 4 vegan dogs were served. Chef Antoine Golden made homemade potato salad too. Thank you to everyone who donated buns, and money, and volunteered! Our guests were very grateful. One young man was overcome with gratitude for the hospitality and hugged a volunteer.
