USANA Kids Eat is helping bring food, stability, and hope to Utah families.

Michelle Benedict, Global Programs Director for USANA Foundation, joined us to explain how Utahns can help.

She says about one in five kids in our state face food insecurity. That means for too many kids, hunger is a quiet part of daily life.

Summer creates a whole new challenge because kids aren't in school for breakfast or lunch programs.

Without organizations like USANA Kids Eat, Utah's food-insecure kids would face even more serious situations.

Michelle says if a business owner, family or company wants to sponsor a school and directly help food-insecure kids in their community, USANA Kids Eat has made it very simple for them to get involved.

1. Choose a school,
2. Sponsor the food bags,
3. Then come pack them with your family or team.
