We are Jacob and Joseph Mansbach, 18 and 16 year old brothers from Santa Barbara. In 2012, we founded a fundraising and triathlon team to raise awareness of hunger issues facing children across our county. Since then, we have partnered with our friends and community to raise funds to provide food to food insecure children, families and seniors. We have been working to support the Foodbank for over 10 years and since 2012, JOINJACOB has raised over $125,000 for the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County to provide ONE MILLION MEALS to kids and people facing hunger across our county.
What started as a concern for the kids of our community has grown into a campaign to fight food insecurity facing children, families and seniors across our nation. Today, in 2022, we continue our work to provide food to all who are at risk of hunger across our county. There is more to do – more meals we can provide, more people we can help, more lives we can improve. Our fundraising goal of $10,000 this year will provide meals and continue our work to end food insecurity.
