Every day, thousands of people, many of them children, wake up hungry and go to bed hungry.  In an average month, Franklin County soup kitchens serve more than 100,000 meals to people who have nowhere else to turn.  And, in today's economy, those numbers are going up.

This "hunger hurt" seems even more pronounced during the holidays. While many of us are enjoying family feasts with loved ones, others have no idea how they are going to put food on their tables.

For more than 20 years, the 10TV Family Fund has helped to provide healthy meals for needy Central Ohio families, especially during the holiday season. In those 20 years, the Family Fund, a 501(3) program, has helped to feed more than 441,000 families.

Feeding thousands of families takes money. Throughout the year, fundraisers and special events help to provide those funds. But we need your help.

Please support the 10TV Family Fund. 100 percent of the proceeds help to feed families right here in Central Ohio. You can make your tax-deductible donation by mailing a check or money order to the address below or you can click here to make an immediate tax-deductible on-line contribution.

You can also drop off your non-perishable food items to benefit The Mid-Ohio FoodBank from now until 12/24/2008 at:

Basement Doctor Home Improvement Center
7369 E. Livingston Ave.
Reynoldsburg, Ohio 43068

Thank you so much for helping and for caring.
