In a time when millions of American families are struggling to put food on the table, forward Alex Wennberg and his wife Felicia have shown that compassion still has a place in the spotlight. The couple’s remarkable donation of 50,000 meals to Feeding America and 2nd Harvest is a powerful reminder that empathy can make a real difference—especially when policy decisions leave families uncertain about their next meal.   
   
Alex Wennberg and Felicia’s generosity inspires hope amid hardship
     
Former New York Ranger Alex Wennberg has always been known for his composure on the ice, but this time, his biggest assist came off it. Teaming up with his wife Felicia, he directed attention to an urgent crisis—millions of Americans facing hunger after the cancellation of SNAP food benefits. Felicia shared a heartfelt message that quickly resonated online:
     
"42 million Americans are about to lose their snap benefits. Among those are 15 million children who will go hungry. Food should not be considered a luxury for children, it's a basic human right especially if you want the US to be considered the greatest country in the world."
   
   
She continued, "We donated 50,000 meals with Feeding America, you can empty out your pantry and donate to your local food bank or add some Mac and cheese and ramen pots for the kids going trick or treating this week. This is not even a left versus right issue, kids should never go hungry."
   
Their act of kindness didn’t just feed people—it inspired countless others to take small steps that collectively make a big difference.
   
Beyond hockey: Wennberg’s off-ice impact grows stronger
   
Currently in his second season with the San Jose Sharks, Wennberg continues to impress with his play—5 points (2-3) in 10 games. But his influence stretches far beyond statistics. During a recent interview with San Jose Hockey Now, he humbly credited Felicia for the initiative.
   
"Obviously my wife is doing a lot of work," Wennberg said. "We're really fortunate with what we do, but there are people who are less fortunate. Especially right now with kids going without food, every kid should have the opportunity to have a good meal."
   
By using his platform for good, Alex Wennberg reminds us that true greatness isn’t just measured in goals or assists—it’s measured in humanity, and in the difference one family can make when they choose kindness over comfort.
