Did you know that nearly 1.8 million people in North Carolina are food insecure? Our state ranks 5th worst in America for food insecurity. Closer to home in the Piedmont, approximately 351,000 people go hungry every day. More importantly, more than 1 in 4 children go hungry in our area. In comparison, nationwide 1 in 5 children go hungry. You may ask, what I can do about the problem?
