Service Hours
Since 2013, I Heart Hungry Kids has been working with volunteers age 5-18 to provide meaningful opportunities for youth service through programs that impact kid hunger issues right here at home.
A nonprofit founded by Jackson Silverman (then age 7) and his twin brothers Gabe and Riley (then age 5), the boys have been recognized at the local, state, and national levels for their work with youth volunteers in South Carolina — living their motto, “kids helping kids to beat hunger”.
OUR PROGRAMS
HANDS-ON SERVICE
Gabe organizes canned food drives and leads programs that offer kids opportunities to do meaningful hands-on service, learn through teamwork, and promote self-empowerement.
FOOD ADVOCACY
Riley works to reform public policy by raising awareness and funds to address lunch debt and finding solutions for hunger in the school systems.
GRANTS & MENTORING
After years of running our Packing Parties, Jackson developed grant programs for youth service initiatives that address food insecurity in communities throughout the Lowcountry of South Carolina.
