From Vision to Impact
When students have access to nutritious meals, they have the fuel they need to succeed. That idea drives Solving Hunger, a campaign led by Tusk Philanthropies and powered by Sinclair Agency’s integrated approach, to issue advocacy.
As the conversation around school meals continues to gain momentum nationwide, our work in states like Nevada, Ohio, Delaware, North Carolina, Arkansas, Oregon, and North Dakota is making headlines– and making a difference.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach
No two states are the same, which is why our team begins every state campaign with a tailored communications plan that takes into account the characteristics that define the region and the unique dynamics of the state's legislature.
Working closely with local partners and the Solving Hunger team, we’ve worked to combine traditional and digital tactics that break through the noise and reach decision makers where it matters most.
- Traditional & Digital Advertising
- Earned Media & PR
- Strategic Outreach
- Dedicated Landing Pages
Across the country, momentum is building – and so is the media coverage. Here’s a look at the impact so far in states leading the way:
