One million Hoosiers often don’t know where their next meal is coming from. That’s why The Kroger Co. and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra created “Sharing on the Prairie.” The partners in Symphony on the Prairie offer the final concerts of the season to mark the beginning of Hunger Action Month. Music fans at Conner Prairie are encouraged to pack their picnic baskets a little differently this weekend, adding food for donation to Gleaners Food Bank.
Feeding America, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization, calls Hunger Action Month the time to “take action on the hunger crisis.” You can help Gleaners by donating any of the non-perishable foods listed on this website: www.gleaners.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/010317-Most-Needed-Items-List.pdf.
Donation barrels will be at Conner Prairie for the holiday weekend concerts.
