"The work of the 4Food4Cle project is a true grassroots movement to aid the Greater Cleveland Foodbank that I hope you can support. All around Cleveland musicians and artists are bringing awareness to the ever growing presence of food insecurity in our community. Please help!"

In the Spring of 2025 the 4Food4Cle campaign was started as a way for area musicians to inspire a community wide effort to raise one million dollars on behalf of the Greater Cleveland Foodbank. As of late October over 100 area musicians have participated in the campaign.

       With the current uncertainty surrounding the SNAP program, we feel that these reductions in support do not reflect the true spirit of the greater Cleveland area community. The Cleveland we all know is close knit, supportive, and caring. Many of us already support the Foodbank, but in order to overcome these new challenges we need to do more!

So we are asking you two questions. What can you do for the Foodbank, and what can you do for Cleveland? 

We urge you join our campaign by making a donation. In addition we ask you to support the campaign in other ways such as raising awareness about the campaign, sharing the campaign thru your social media, or hosting a campaign event.
