New Hampshire Food Bank says more help needed as food insecurity grows

The New Hampshire Food Bank is putting out a call for help because thousands of more people in New Hampshire are facing the dilemma of paying rent or putting food on the table.
The New Hampshire Food Bank is actively addressing food insecurity across the state by distributing food to various communities, with a significant effort noted in Manchester where over 1,000 households were served in a single day. The organization has seen a 30% increase in demand compared to the previous year, driven by rising food prices and the end of certain federal assistance programs. To meet this growing need, the food bank is not only increasing its distribution efforts but also encouraging community involvement through volunteering and donations. They are also focusing on providing culturally relevant food options to better serve the diverse population of New Hampshire.
