St. Mary's Bank and the Monarchs Care Foundation, the charitable arm of the Manchester Monarchs, are battling hunger together this season. For every goal the Monarchs score at home during the regular season, St. Mary's will donate $100 to the New Hampshire Food Bank, a program of New Hampshire Catholic Charities.

The New Hampshire Food Bank serves as the only food bank in the state. Their current approach to ending hunger includes developing programs to help educate member agencies, rolling out a Mobile Food Pantry and expanding their Operation Frontline program. Each year the Food Bank distributes nearly 4 million pounds of donated, surplus food to more than 300 food pantries, soup kitchens, shelters, day care centers, senior citizen homes and substance abuse treatment centers. These member agencies in turn provide the food to the nearly 80,000 hungry men, women and children throughout New Hampshire. Visit www.nhfoodbank.org for more information.
