Today, children in the United States are facing higher levels of hunger, homelessness and a growing learning gap due to the widespread ripple effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2020, child poverty in the US rose as high as 21.4 percent1 worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic, making it increasingly urgent to support underserved children. Walgreens proudly serves as a longtime national partner of Red Nose Day, a campaign from nonprofit Comic Relief US, with the mission to end child poverty by funding programs that keep children safe, healthy, educated and empowered. To help tackle this issue, Walgreens is collaborating with actress Jordana Brewster to raise awareness and funds to end child poverty through Red Nose Day.
