"The term food deserts gets used a lot, but I think people don't necessarily know what it means; it mostly means there's not a grocery store. What it also means is just the general resources around fresh produce, healthy food, and affordable food, it's really difficult, and so we know that many people who are particularly on that list of struggling with hunger live in those neighborhoods." Our founder Taylor Hanson spoke with Tess Maune of News On 6 about Hunger Action Month, a nationwide effort to raise awareness about hunger and inspire action.

“We have heard the news that Oklahoma has opted out of the Summer EBT Program for 2025 for the second year in row. One out of every four children in our state struggle with food insecurity. The EBT program is a critical resource designed to help these children get the nourishment they need during the summer months and this decision will negatively impact thousands of Oklahoma children. Food On The Move remains committed to our community and will continue to provide access to fresh produce through our Community Food and Resource Festivals and other programs.” Kevin Harper President and CEO Food On The Move, Inc.
