“We worked all our lives. I thought I did everything right. I never expected to be here.”
Kathleen’s reflection, expressed during a recent visit to a mobile food pantry in Ralston, Neb., captures a universal reality: regardless of employment status, socio-economic status, where you live or who you are, anyone can experience food insecurity. Hunger knows no boundaries.
At the Food Bank of Lincoln and Food Bank for the Heartland, along with our network of more than 660 food pantries, hot meal sites, faithbased organizations, and school and community partners, we work to alleviate hunger across Nebraska. Together, we are committed to ensuring that during moments of unexpected instability or ongoing challenge, every neighbor in our state has access to nourishing food.
