Each year, millions of Americans are impacted by hunger and food insecurity.

Experiencing food insecurity at a young age can lead to lasting health concerns – especially if families facing hunger are forced to choose between spending money on food or on medical care. When communities have access to healthy, well-balanced diets, everyone benefits.
