WHAT WE DO: Stories of Hunger

THEIR STORIES. OUR STORIES.

Hunger can happen to anyone. Volunteers, guests, and donors share their stories of hunger and hope.

CATELEYA & GRACIE

“I really like the juice,” says Cateleya, smiling. “I like the ravioli,” Gracie says. “And the cereal! Yum! I like to eat cereal for breakfast.”

LAURIE

“Sometimes I have to decide, “Am I going to get my medication, or am I going to eat?” The food from the building’s food pantry helps me and so many people here.”

SHAWN

“What seemed like a nice way to get outside and volunteer for a couple of hours at work really inspired me to get involved and open my heart to always say “yes” when the opportunity presented itself.”
