🍓🍊 Hunger has debilitating, lifelong effects on a child’s health, cognitive development, behavior, academic achievement and ability to succeed. It undermines that child’s well-being, the stability of her family, and the prosperity of our community.

The fact that nearly one in four children ‼️ in North Alabama is hungry exposes critical gaps in our food system and the consequences will affect everyone.

Crucial federal nutrition programs like free school meals or SNAP (food stamps) do much to address hunger but the aid does not meet the need and critical gaps remain.

What are these gaps?

- Children who depend upon free or reduced priced meals at school are often at risk of hunger on weekends, holidays, and over the summer.
- Children up to five years old are too young to attend school where free meals are served.
- 80% of households seeking food assistance in North Alabama report that their SNAP (food stamp) benefit lasts only 3 weeks out of the month.
- 13,872 food insecure children in North Alabama live in homes that earn too much to qualify for free school meals or SNAP (food stamps).

Good Afternoon Everyone! Wow, what a busy time we are having, so many of our neighbors needing food assistance. We know with the end of the school year upon us, this will continue to be the trend. There are a couple of items we would like to ask for help with to help familes during the summer months. Any size jars of peanut butter. We are also in need of any kind of crackers. we use both of these items in family food orders and our unhoused community as well. Thank you all for always helping us help our neighbors!
