For 1 in 8 Americans, hunger is a reality. We all know and are in contact with people affected by hunger, even though we might not be aware of it.

"Times are tough. I've been unemployed for over a year. Even though I wish I didn't need help, I do. I have a grandson to feed, and it's wonderful to have support from Second Harvest."
