September is Hunger Action Month as well as National Rice Month. Not only do we recognize the amazing work the rice industry does for our state's economy but also the pivotal role Arkansas rice farmers play in the fight against hunger.

Domtar Ashdown Mill employees will present approximately $5,000, along with dozens of backpacks filled with non-perishable, kid-friendly food items, to Harvest Regional Food Bank on Thursday, August 29, at 9AM, at the Domtar Ashdown Mill Facility.

Harvest Food Bank will kick off national Hunger Action Month on Tuesday, August 27, with their annual Hunger Action Luncheon, taking place at noon at Williams Memorial United Methodist Church.

Hunger advocates in Texarkana and across the country will be wearing orange on September 3 in an effort to raise awareness of the estimated 50 million people in the US who face hunger. It's just one of the many awareness events taking place throughout the month of September in recognition of Feeding America's Hunger Action Month. This will be a month-long campaign to help end hunger in our country
