BASHING HUNGER
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, in 2019 more than 35 million people experienced hunger in the United States. In 2020 the COVID-19 pandemic caused more than 42 million people to experience food insecurity, estimating about 13 million children included. Hunger affects millions of people everyday from all different backgrounds including but not limited to the unhoused, children, seniors, minorities and many more. Sebastian Joseph-Day’s goal is to take action and provide food security for the individuals and families who are struggling. Joseph-Day stated, “Combating hunger has been something that I’ve always tried to attack through all of my charitable efforts. I believe that no one should suffer or worry about when their next meal will be. The physical and emotional stress attached to hunger is debilitating. The goal of Bashing Hunger is to help build sustainable resources to eliminate food deprivation.”
“Sebastian has consistently demonstrated a unique passion and commitment to community service. As he introduces his “Bashing Hunger” initiative, it’s awesome to see him deepen his commitment to help tackle some of the most pressing issues facing our community – food insecurity and homelessness. Sebastian represents the best of the Los Angeles Rams and always epitomizes our ‘We Not Me’ culture through his incredible compassion and love for humanity.”
-Molly Higgins, Rams Vice President of Community Affairs and Engagement
