During Hunger Action Month (HAM), Perficient teams from around the globe came together with purpose, compassion, and generosity to fight hunger in our communities. Organized by Perficient’s Giving Employee Resource Group (ERG), Perficient partnered with Feeding America to support the organization’s global campaign to fight food insecurity. Colleagues from around the world collectively donated an incredible 8,600 pounds of food — nourishing families, supporting local food pantries, and spreading kindness.
To encourage participation, Perficient and the Giving ERG challenged each global office to a friendly office-wide competition. The offices that donated at least 100 pounds of food and submitted an impact story would qualify as HAM champions.

HAM Champions: Nagpur and Denver
We’re thrilled to announce our 2025 HAM Champions – Nagpur and Denver! Both offices demonstrated outstanding commitment to philanthropy and creativity in their efforts to fight hunger and support our global communities.
As a reigning HAM champion, Nagpur made a powerful impact to address hunger and extend support to impoverished local communities. The team distributed 115 grocery bags filled with groceries, dry fruits, and other essentials to tribal families, a girls’ cricket team, and a senior living home — totaling 4,229 pounds of supplies.
A colleague from Nagpur shared, “The smiles, gratitude, and warmth we received in return were deeply moving. This initiative reflects our enduring commitment to community care and social responsibility. At Perficient, we believe that small acts of kindness can spark big changes. Together, we continue to build a future where compassion leads the way.” 
Colleagues in our Denver office supported the Food Bank of the Rockies by pooling their resources to make significant monetary donations, resulting in an impact equivalent to 1,340 pounds of food.
From innovative donation drives to heartfelt outreach, the impact made during HAM truly embodies the generosity and kindness found across Perficient’s offices. Congratulations to our winners and thank you to every office that participated.

Reflecting on Our Global Impact
Small acts of kindness can spark big changes. This year’s HAM campaign showed the power of collective action. Across continents, cultures and communities, colleagues stepped up to fight food insecurity. Together, we donated more than 8,600 pounds of food and countless moments of hope.
Ana Oana, an HR consultant based out of our Romania office, shared, “Being part of Hunger Action Month reminded us all how powerful small acts of kindness can be. Contributing food and raising awareness felt humbling, knowing it could ease someone’s day. It brought our community closer and showed that compassion truly makes a difference for those who are less blessed.”
The fight against hunger doesn’t end with HAM. You can make a difference year-round by volunteering at local food banks, organizing donation drives, and donating to organizations like Feeding America. Every effort matters. Together, we can continue to lead with purpose, compassion, and impact.
