Big thanks to everyone who came out to the No Lunch Lunch event last week on Nicollet Mall! Lots of people stopped by to skip lunch and pledge their plate to help end hunger in the heartland, alongside Moon and Staci from KS95 and Viktor the Viking.

A very special thank you to Ameriprise Financial. Wearing shirts to represent the 1 in 8 Americans who are at risk for hunger, more than 100 Ameriprise employees marched down Nicollet Mall to join us at the event, and pledged 1,000 plates – or $5,000 – enough to provide 18,000 meals for our neighbors in need.

There are still two weeks left of Hunger Action Month – so be sure to check out the Hunger Action Month microsite to learn more ways to get involved.

Join KS95’s Moon & Staci for the No Lunch Lunch Event from 11-1 tomorrow (September 9) in front of the IDS on Nicollet Mall. There’s no lunch. And that’s the point.

Help kick off Hunger Action Month by pledging your lunch to help hungry kids and families right here in our communities. Just $5 will help us distribute 18 lunches to people in need. It’s that easy.

Plus we’ll tell you all about how to get involved with the new Food & Fund Drive program – It’s Serious Fun! And we’ll reward you with a chance to win great prizes from our partners the Minnesota Vikings. You could win a Vikings Player-autographed item or tickets to the Taste of the NFL event.

If you can’t join us onsite, make sure to tune in to KS95 and join Dez for the No Lunch Lunch hour at noon.
