About National Feed America Day
Civil Rights , United States
Ends: Nov 17, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
Not many think that the United States has a problem with hunger, but numbers and data tell a different story. Food insecurity exists in every county, including the richest country in the world, the United States. Food insecurity is not just about getting enough food but also about access to nutritious food. Often poorer areas have access to fast-food and low-nutrition, inexpensive foods but little access to fresh fruits and vegetables.
Overall, food insecurity ranges from a low of four percent of the population in Loudoun County, Virginia, to 38 percent in Jefferson County, Mississippi. Los Angeles County, California, has the highest number of food-insecure individuals, 1.4 million from a population of 10.1 million.
In virtually all 3,142 US counties, at least some food-insecure individuals whose income level prevents them from qualifying for federal nutrition assistance. See this interactive map to explore food insecurity by country: http://map.feedingamerica.org.
In 115 counties, including such populous ones as Collin County, TX, and Montgomery County, PA, most food-insecure individuals are likely ineligible for such assistance.
This Feed America Day focuses on the needs of Americans who may not be able to enjoy the holiday season commencing in the following week. It's an opportunity to increase the stocks of food banks and involve the entire nation in supporting the most vulnerable members of society.
