This year’s Albuquerque Day of Caring focuses on food insecurity in New Mexico, where 1 in 5 children and 1 in 8 residents face hunger. Join us for a community food drive on Saturday, October 11, from 9 AM to 1 PM at Winrock Town Park. Bring non-perishable food items to support grassroots pantries across our five-county region. Contributions also help fund UWNCNM’s grantmaking efforts, directly benefiting local families.

The event will also include a resource fair with community partners, an ALICE Simulation to better understand the challenges of living paycheck to paycheck, and a conversation with local pantry leaders about how we can work together to fight hunger.
