“America’s kids need us. Millions of vulnerable children are losing the healthy meals they depend on as the coronavirus closes schools nationwide.”
No Kid Hungry
To date, Williams-Sonoma, Inc. has donated over $10 million dollars to No Kid Hungry in their fight to end childhood hunger. During these uncertain times, all our brands are supporting No Kid Hungry with a digital fundraising campaign. Staring March 21, 2020, customers can give through digital donation pages at Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, Pottery Barn Teen, Williams Sonoma, West Elm, Rejuvenation and Mark and Graham. We’re also organizing email and social media campaigns to raise funds.
As of March 21, No Kid Hungry has given out $1M in grants with more to come. They’ve also opened a grant portal for schools and districts to apply for emergency assistance during coronavirus closures, and they’re advocating for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) measures for kids and families. Your support helps them:

- Divert resources to help hard-hit food banks and organizations feeding kids nationwide.
