Who We Help

There's More to Food Insecurity Than a Single Narrative

Food insecurity affects a wide range of people and families who are struggling to make ends meet, despite their best efforts. Nutrition becomes a discretionary expense, sacrificed for more urgent bills.

Day-to-day Decisions Aren't So Trivial For Some People

Stay warm or eat?
Pay for a child to go to camp or eat?
Pay the rent or eat?
Fix the car or eat?
Repair the fridge or eat?

“The main reasons recorded for needing kai support this year are increased rent/mortgage and increased food costs.”
