This month, we've made the decision to stop posting and engaging on Twitter. The discourse surrounding this site has become too toxic to ignore, and we can no longer reconcile our values as Jews and advocates with what we see here on a daily basis.
Moving forward, we encourage you to join us on our other platforms, including here:

And of course, you can always find us at mazon.org. We aren't leaving the fight to #EndHunger - we're just leaving this site. We'll see you in less toxic waters.
#DYK? Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. highlighted hunger when accepting his Nobel Peace Prize, casting “three meals a day” as fundamental to human dignity. This #MLKDay, explore our #HungerMuseum to learn more about Dr. King & the fight to #EndHunger ➡️ loom.ly/imUkBYM
To our friends and neighbors in #LosAngeles - we continue to stand with you during these frightening times. For anyone in need of assistance, @JewishFreeLoan is offering emergency, interest-free loans that are open to people of all faiths and backgrounds: loom.ly/xNf8TnI
You can learn more, including about where to access resources or assistance and which organizations on the ground (including @LAFoodBank, Our Big Kitchen Los Angeles, and others) are working to support those impacted by the fires, at our ongoing blog: loom.ly/R2zuUOM
We were honored to join the @WhiteHouse’s #JoiningForces event today, honoring the Biden-Harris Administration’s work to support those who serve in the U.S. military.
Tens of thousands of military service members and their families struggle with hunger today, and this Administration, especially @FLOTUS and Sheila Casey, worked tirelessly on their behalf. mazon.org/priorities/militar…
Thank you for your efforts to strengthen economic opportunity and quality of life for #militaryfamilies - it is a privilege to be your partner in this work, and we are committed to continuing the fight to #EndHunger well into the future.
We remain deeply concerned about how the incoming administration will attack safety net programs like SNAP and shame - rather than support - the millions of Americans facing food insecurity, including military families. (4/5)

Our hearts are with all those being impacted this week by the devastating #PasadenaFire and #EatonFire, which MAZON and most of our team calls home. We know Angelenos are so resilient and that this is truly testing our strength, and we know we’ll get through this together.
