Learn More About Your DonationHATCH is a 501 c3 non-profit that connects farmers and protein producers to food-insecure individuals and families through food banks. No other organization is doing what HATCH does. By creating consistent access to complete protein, the HATCH protein delivery model changes diets and improves nutritional health and delivers lifelong impacts.
HATCH is launching a strategic fundraising effort aimed at scaling our protein delivery model and expanding our reach. Investing in this movement focuses on long-term investments that enhance HATCH’s capabilities and allow us to deliver 1 million protein rich meals per day, 2X protein availability, and 3X protein advocacy.
HATCH addresses three critical gaps in the fight against food insecurity: the hunger gap, the nutrition gap, and the protein awareness gap.
The Hunger Gap: 12 million households are food insecure. We are providing more protein meals for families who lack access every day.
The Nutrition Gap: 100+ food banks and 30,000+ pantries will have reliable access to protein-rich meals, creating better eating habits for millions.
The Protein Awareness Gap: Utilize educational campaigns and roll out advocacy efforts to change perceptions about animal protein to fuel long-term nutritional change.
HATCH’s shared value model benefits all members of the food distribution cycle, from farmers to families. Farmers gain a consistent outlet for lower-demand products, like small eggs and dark meat.
Food banks receive a reliable supply of fresh, nutrient-dense animal protein, addressing a key challenge in sourcing such foods. Consumers benefit from regular access to high-quality protein, leading to better long-term health outcomes and improved nutrition.
HATCH has a shared value model that has delivered 20x growth in three years. Specifically, HATCH manages all logistics to source eggs, chicken, turkey, beef and pork from local farms and processors on a cost+ basis and deliver food banks at or below food bank budgets. Based on our growth and success so far, scaling this model can triple our impact by 2028.
Local food banks provide hunger relief — and we are proud to contribute. The HATCH difference is that in addition to feeding families today, our model creates nutrition security and changes diet habits to support lifelong health. As we scale and expand our reach, the impact of protein-rich meals has the potential to transform community health for generations.
We’re scaling to provide one million protein-rich meals daily to families in need – a transformation that will affordably double protein availability in America’s food assistance network for generations. To achieve this, WE NEED YOUR HELP!
