Help make a difference in the life of someone who doesn’t have enough to eat every day.
The Yale Peabody Museum is hosting a food drive in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Join us in collecting non-perishable food items for the New Haven Community Soup Kitchen and Christian Community Action. It is estimated that in Connecticut, one in seven households struggles to put food on the table. Nearly 490,000 people in Connecticut are at risk of hunger every year. These are people from all walks of life – children, working parents, seniors and people living with disabilities.
