  Food security in portions of Kentucky and Indiana has increased by almost 50% in two years.


Food insecurity is on the rise in parts of Kentucky and Indiana, with the Community Foundation of Southern Indiana reporting a 20% increase in demand for food assistance in Clark and Floyd counties. This surge is attributed to the end of pandemic-era benefits and rising food prices. In Louisville, Kentucky, the Dare to Care Food Bank has seen a 30% increase in the number of people seeking help, serving over 200,000 individuals monthly. Both organizations are struggling to keep up with the demand, and they are calling for more community support and donations to address the growing need.
