Job loss can quickly lead to food insecurity. Understand the impact and learn how you can take action to help those in need.
Feeding America has provided an updated Map the Meal Gap, which tracks the level of food insecurity in every U.S. County. The need in our community continues to grow: One in seven people and one in six children in the 26 counties served by the St. Louis Area Foodbank experience food insecurity.

Did you know that food insecurity affects rural America in the following ways: *In 2021, 11% of rural households were food insecure. *9 out of 10 counties with the highest food insecurity rates are rural. *Rural communities make up 63% of all U.S counties, but 87% of counties with the highest food insecurity rates. *Food insecurity is linked to a wide range of negative health outcomes, and rural Americans are at higher risk for poor health outcomes than their urban counterparts. *Although food security is slightly higher in rural areas than in urban areas, 12.5% of individuals living in rural communities were food insecure in 2019. Your dollars make a difference. Every $1 = 2 meals. Start your new year off right and donate today!
There is only one place for neighbors to buy groceries in Sabetha, a rural Kansas town that is home to fewer than 3,000 people. That means if someone can't find the nutritious foods that meet their needs—or isn't able to afford them—they are left with little to no options. Luckily, the town's community food pantry is there to help fill the meal gap when times are difficult and uncertain.

I live in Arlington, Virginia. It’s a place that's rich in diversity, food, and greenery. It’s also affected by food insecurity, with more than 23,000 people (nearly 10% of the population) not having access to enough food for an active, healthy life. These are just some of the eye-opening facts released this week as part of Feeding America’s Map the Meal Gap Study (https://lnkd.in/ep7JimvB) —an annual, comprehensive view of how food insecurity varies across the U.S. As the only national study to provide county-level estimates of food insecurity and food costs, this study is a powerful tool for all of us to use to better understand hunger in our communities. It shows that food insecurity exists in every county, parish and congressional district in this nation, but it isn’t experienced equally. Food insecurity levels vary across regions, influenced by factors like unemployment and poverty rates as well as policies and practices rooted in history that continue to hold people back today. I encourage you to learn about the impact of hunger in your community. Spark conversations around the systemic factors that drive food insecurity then join the movement to end hunger (https://lnkd.in/enR6y7VC). Help us create a future where we all have access to the food and resources we need to thrive. #EndHunger

We aim to empower women through providing accommodation, psycho-social support, employment, and training.
Did You Know each meal served during our #GivingbackFridays costs just R14 per plate? As part of our external services, we focus extensively on food security. #GivingBackFridays is our weekly dedication to serving a hot, nutritious meal to those in need in our community. Currently, our #GivingBackFridays costs R7000 per week. We serve about 500 people, which comes down to R14 per plate served. A little does go a long way, and although rising food prices continue to affect our budget, we work hard to stretch every rand by negotiating with grocery suppliers to get the lowest prices on food. How You Can Help: Your contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Here's how you can help us continue serving our community: Donate Food: Our soup kitchen menu and food quantities for #givingbackfridays are available on request. DM or email us info@fridahartley.org Sponsor a #GivingBackFriday: Every rand donated goes directly towards purchasing food and supplies. A SARS section 18A certificate can be issued. Get involved, and let's work together to eliminate hunger in our communities. #GivingBackFridays #CommunityOutreach #foodsecurity https://lnkd.in/dmiT6vGa
