What's in this post
In 2009, 50.2 million Americans lived in “food insecure” households. In other words- during any given time period they were out of money, food, and forced to miss meals or seek assistance for food. That’s 33 million adults and 17.2 million children. Hunger is an epidemic that affects children, adults, and seniors in America every day.
