Do you know someone who had to rely on a food bank to provide food for their family? Chances are you have, but you just didn’t know it. You see, most families who are struggling don’t tell anyone. They don’t let anyone know that they need help. They don’t admit that they can’t provide enough food for their children. AND they especially keep it to themselves that they need help just keeping a roof over their heads.
At least once a month many families have to choose between paying their electric bill or food.
Many families have to choose between paying rent/mortgage and buying food.
Families are making sacrifices right in front of us.
Do you see it?
A few years ago I asked you “What does homeless look like?” and many of you were shocked that homeless could be the everyday family standing in front of you in the grocery store, or the student sitting next to your child in class. The same goes for hungry.
What does hungry look like?
Would you know if you saw it?
What if I told you that your coworker at a successful local business could be facing hunger at home? What if I told you that the star football player at your child’s school doesn’t eat enough because he wants to make sure his younger siblings have enough to eat? What if I told you that your child’s teacher regularly visits the food bank — not to donate?
That is what hunger looks like.
