More South Dakotans need YOUR help than you probably realize. Thanksgiving is one of the many times that you can help.  Feeding South Dakota is accepting Thanksgiving dinner items such as:

  • Turkey
  • Stuffing
  • Cranberry
  • Pumpkin pies/filling

Here's the startling facts regarding hunger in our state. Remember: these are REAL people that you can help by donating to Feeding South Dakota today.

  • 3 counties in South Dakota are the poorest in the United States.
  • South Dakota has 8 of the nation’s 30 poorest counties.
  • Nearly 40% of the state’s school-aged children qualify for free and reduced meals.
  • 14.6% of individuals live at or below the poverty line.

With each dollar you give, Feeding South Dakota can provide nearly 5 pounds of food to the hungry. A single dollar can provide 4 meals, so we can honestly say that every dollar you give makes a difference.

Please give today. Whether it’s $25 to feed a family for a week or $145 to provide one child with a BackPack Program food package each weekend for an entire school year, you truly can help eliminate hunger in South Dakota today.
