The 7% Solution

World Food Day occurs in the middle of October. Certain restaurants will donate 7% of their proceeds on that day to fight hunger. Work with your local synagogue and restaurants to help end hunger in your city!


Target Groups: Multi-generational Social Action Program

In celebration of World Food Day (a day in mid-October) participating restaurants in southeastern Michigan donate 7% of their proceeds that day to help fight hunger in Michigan. In 1995, over $72,000 was raised and distributed to organizations that provide food for the needy and advocate for long term solutions to hunger. Work with your synagogue to get local restaurants to participate in the 7% solution on either World Food Day or another occasion.
