Without access to nutritious food \u2013 or enough of it \u2013 people can\u2019t thrive. It affects everything \u2013 from health to education to financial success. It is hard to concentrate on school work, find a job, or manage a heart problem if you struggle with food insecurity. Hunger is one of the harshest and most detrimental symptoms of poverty. Most simply, it is a result of not having enough money to cover all of your basic needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To drive hunger from our communities today and end hunger forever, we need everyone to collaborate, including corporations, foundations, individuals and the government. We can\u2019t do it alone \u2014 we must work together. Philabundance not only runs numerous programs to alleviate hunger today, but also launched in spring 2019 Ending Hunger. For Good.<\/a> Through that program, Philabundance partners with critical service providers to offer food coupled with other services to help break the cycle of poverty and end hunger for good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Fellah Auto Group \/ Beer-A-Rama \/ 215 Mopar Representation The Fellah Family is working with Philbundance, Beer-A-Rama, 215 Mopar and the local community to stamp out hunger with our Fall Food Drive.
