Hunger Action Month

For decades, Feeding South Dakota has been delivering food, hope, and compassion to neighbors across the state. This Hunger Action Month, we’re creating a new way for our community to come together in support of neighbors facing hunger:

Our first Volunteer-a-Thon: Delivering Through the Decades

Delivering Through the Decades honors the volunteers, partners, and supporters who have made our mission possible through the years. Each Feeding South Dakota location will host its own celebration, complete with extended volunteer hours, decade-themed music, and plenty of opportunities to be part of the movement to end hunger!

Take action with us - gather your friends, family, or coworkers and choose a volunteer shift from the 70's, 80's, 90's or 2000's.  Together, we'll continue delivering through the decades—one meal, one volunteer, and one community at a time.

Awesome Volunteers Wanted!

We're spending the day packing, sorting, and preparing food while taking a journey through different eras of music. Whether you're volunteering for the first time or returning for another shift, you'll be part of a statewide effort to help feed our neighbors.

The music changes. The mission doesn't. Join the fun by choosing a volunteer shift inspired by the 70s, 80s, 90s, or 2000s. You'll help us deliver hope across South Dakota all while enjoying the soundtrack of your favorite decade.
