Supporting Her Neighbors in Need

VOICES brings stories of hunger to light

Cindy cares for people. Whether it's her mom or granddaughter or a neighbor down the hall, she does what she can to make lives better.

"I appreciate what I get from the food pantry and am even more appreciate of the folks that work there, " she says. "In my building there's a deaf woman and a blind woman who are unable to drive to get to a food pantry. And there's only one program that will bring hot food to these folks." 

She adds that others lack support systems. "At the end of the month these people are barely hanging on. So, I give food to them, " says Cindy. "We need to find a way to work together to address these folks who aren't being cared for." 

Your support of Oregon Food Bank supplies pantries with fresh produce, meat, dairy and pantry staples for thousands of people experiencing hunger.
