Event builds on CoreGiving's impact as the organization surpasses 100 million meals enabled.

CoreGiving, a 501(c)(3) organization that unites people and partners to nourish children and families through grants and volunteer service, multiplying its impact in the fight against childhood hunger, will host its sixth annual CoreGiving Day on Thursday, October 1, 2026.

This year’s event is expected to bring together volunteers from Blackstone and 30 of its portfolio companies to support hunger-relief organizations in over 100 cities across five continents. CoreGiving’s global reach continues to expand, with new volunteer opportunities launched in Canada, Colombia and India.

For the third consecutive year, the Blackstone Charitable Foundation will grant $250,000 to CoreGiving in support of its Global Fight Hunger campaign. Combined with sponsorship support from CBRE Group, Inc., Colliers, Cushman & Wakefield, Eastdil Secured Savills, JLL and Newmark Group, Inc., this funding will help provide more than 4 million meals through CoreGiving’s network of hunger-relief partners.

“Food insecurity remains a challenge for millions of households, making the work of CoreGiving more important than ever,” said Luke J. Petherbridge, chairman and co-founder of CoreGiving and CEO of Link Logistics. “When children are worried about where their next meal is coming from, it becomes harder for them to learn, grow and reach their full potential. Through the support of our volunteers, sponsors and partners, we are helping more children and families access nutritious food and the opportunities that come with it.”

This collective support builds on CoreGiving's growing impact. Since its inception, CoreGiving has helped provide more than 100 million meals for children and families in need.

“Each year, CoreGiving Day brings more people into our mission and expands the impact we can make together,” said Bridget O'Connell, executive director of CoreGiving. “This year, volunteers across five continents will support food banks, meal programs and other hunger-relief organizations serving their local communities. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and partners, we're multiplying our impact through volunteer service and helping fund millions of additional meals through our network of hunger-relief partners.”
