This article resonates deeply with us. A common concern is the fear of giving "too much" rather than "too little." This fear often ties into the old debate between the 'deserving' and 'undeserving' poor. In managing food assistance programs, we frequently encounter two contrasting philosophies. One insists on strict measures to ensure that not a single 'undeserving' person benefits if it means risking resources. The other advocates a more inclusive approach, willing to risk some 'undeserving' individuals receiving food if it ensures that one person who is truly in need does not go hungry. These contrasting philosophies challenge us to reflect on our core values. It raises fundamental questions about compassion, justice, and efficiency in our efforts to combat food insecurity. #FoodSecurity #SocialJustice #DeservingVsUndeserving #foodpantry #foodbank #foodinsecurity #poverty

Working in anti-hunger spaces, I'm surprised at just how often I encounter the attitude that people experiencing hunger don't need "that much food." The assumptions we carry about hunger and what kind of support our community needs directly impacts our efforts to fight it, and not for the better.

While many children throughout the country welcome to start of summer, for millions of families, summer can mean additional hardship. 14 million U.S. children -- one in five -- live in households that struggle against hunger, and we know that child hunger soars during the summer when traditional school meals are unavailable. As our Countdown to Summer giving campaign comes to an end, will you help Hunger Free America connect families in need with food? https://lnkd.in/e929GSXK
