National Foundation to End Senior Hunger Founder Enid Borden offers an inspiring mix of pragmatism, optimism and outrage.

Once again, our thousands of supporters have made our annual Blue Jeans Ball a huge success.

Chef Spike Mendelsohn, former Top Chef contestant and Blue Jeans Ball Special Guest, is the first competitor in the food bank’s $10 Challenge.

Every year, the Blue Jeans Ball brings together chefs from all over the D.C. area to share their flair and their fare to help eradicate hunger.

Volunteers are critically needed to feed kids involved in our Weekend Bag Program. Graduate school students from PricewaterhouseCoopers’ internship program stepped up to ensure they were all fed.

Through the AmeriCorps CAN food drive, volunteers, current AmeriCorps members and alumni raised over 1,000 pounds of food for the Capital Area Food Bank throughout the month of February.

Some people come for the food, others come for big-ticket bargains.

The numbers are staggering. One doesn’t have to travel far to see the toll that hunger can take on an individual.

To think it all started off in the cafeteria of Catholic University! Blue Jeans Ball has increased tenfold thanks to the hard work of its organizing committee.

Word of Blue Jeans Ball has spread through the chef community thanks to the hard work of Anthony Hesselius.
