Description: Taste of the Nation Manchester raises critical funds needed to support Share Our Strength’s efforts to end childhood hunger in New Hampshire and across the nation. More than 50 of New Hampshire’s hottest chefs and restaurants will participate in the event. Guests will enjoy the state’s finest foods paired with wines from 35 vineyards throughout the country. Since 1988, Taste of the Nation has raised more than $75 million and the Manchester event has raised more than $700,000 to fund programs to combat childhood hunger in New Hampshire. Area charities that benefit from the event include The New Hampshire Food Bank, Children’s Alliance of New Hampshire and New Hampshire Farm to School Program. With nearly 17 million children facing hunger in America (that’s almost one in four), and more than 14% of children in Manchester with inadequate access to nutritious foods, Share Our Strength’s Taste of the Nation is more vital than ever. The event raises funds to help end childhood hunger in America by ensuring that at-risk children and their families have reliable access to enough nutritious food to thrive. Funds raised through Taste of the Nation events support No Kid Hungry™, Share Our Strength’s campaign to end childhood hunger in America.
