JERICHO, N.Y., Oct. 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. (NASDAQ: FLWS) announced the launch of its holiday campaign to help No Kid Hungry end childhood hunger by giving kids the healthy food they need to thrive. It's estimated that nearly 12 million children in the United States currently live in households facing hunger, and that 1 in 6 kids could face hunger this year.

Now through December 24, 2021 the company will donate 20% of the Net Proceeds* from each gift purchased from its specially curated Season of Sharing collection to No Kid Hungry. In addition to shopping this assortment, customers can also choose to make a monetary donation to No Kid Hungry. For every $1 No Kid Hungry receives, it can provide up to 10 meals to kids in need**.

"Together with No Kid Hungry, we want to change the painful truth that millions of children in America are living with hunger," said Chris McCann, CEO of 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. "During this season of sharing, we look forward to raising awareness about the issue of food insecurity and engaging our customers to help ensure that kids across the country have access to the food they need."

Customers can learn more about the issue of childhood hunger through the campaign's original blog posts, Pinterest boards from Harry & David® and 1-800-Flowers.com®, video content, and more.

Through its continued support of hunger relief efforts, 1-800-FLOWERS.COM, Inc. has helped No Kid Hungry provide up to 1 million meals for kids in need. The company also regularly donates items to food banks throughout the country.
