September is Hunger Action Month and in order to draw attention to the cause, a hyperlocal news site called Patch is working directly with 200 local food banks with a goal of providing support and resources for the communities they serve. Autumn Johnson, Managing Editor of Patch says that there are families who struggle with hunger everywhere.

Johnson felt that once the pandemic hit, Patch needed to do more especially for families that were struggling.

Johnson hopes that her work with Patch and helping the food banks can bring meals to families.
