Describe the Organization's Program Activity:

Part 3 - Line 4a

FOOD COLLECTION AND DISTRIBUTION - DURING THE TWELVE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2021, FOODSHARE DISTRIBUTED OVER 14 MILLION MEALS TO NEARLY 300 COMMUNITY-BASED PROGRAMS THAT SERVE PEOPLE IN NEED, INCLUDING FOOD PANTRIES, COMMUNITY KITCHENS AND MOBILE FOODSHARE SITES. MORE THAN 119,000 PEOPLE IN GREATER HARTFORD ARE FOOD INSECURE AND MAY SEEK HELP FROM THESE PROGRAMS; 30% OF THOSE AT RISK ARE CHILDREN. WE PARTNER WITH THE FOOD INDUSTRY - RETAILERS, FARMERS, AND MAUFACTURERS - TO RECLAIM SAFE FOOD THAT IS NOT SALABLE AND DISTRIBUTE IT TO LOCAL PROGRAMS THAT SERVE FAMILIES, CHILDREN, SENIORS, AND OTHERS IN NEED. WE FOCUS ON PROVIDING NUTRITIOUS FOOD OPTIONS TO IMPROVE THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. AN ADDED BENEFIT IS THAT LESS FOOD ENDS UP IN LANDFILLS.


BUILDING SOLUTIONS - IN ADDITION TO DISTRIBUTING FOOD TO MEET IMMEDIATE NEEDS, SOLVING AN ISSUE AS COMPLEX AS HUNGER REQUIRES DIFFERENT PARTS OF OUR COMMUNITY WORKING TOGETHER TOWARDS LONG-TERM SOLUTIONS. FOODSHARE RAISES AWARENESS ABOUT HUNGER TO MOBILIZE COMMUNITY ACTION AND CONDUCTS OUTREACH WITH PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF ELIGIBLE PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATE IN FEDERAL NUTRITION PROGRAMS. AND, BECAUSE IT TAKES MORE THAN FOOD TO END HUNGER, WE PLAY A LEADERSHIP ROLE IN COORDINATING A MORE COMPREHENSIVE RESPONSE THAT ALSO ADDRESSES ROOT CAUSES.
