Hunger is the Shame of America — Together, We Can End It
Across Long Island, the rising cost of living and other challenges like fixed incomes, disabilities, and job loss are forcing more families into crisis. Right now, over 221,000 people, including 65,000 children, face food insecurity.
What is Food Insecurity?
Food insecurity means not having reliable access to nutritious food on a daily basis. For those affected, the stress and uncertainty of not knowing where their next meal will come from take a toll on both physical and mental health.
As Harry Chapin so powerfully said, “Hunger is the shame of America.” In a world of abundance, no one should have to go hungry.
