| | Despite a median household income of over
$50,000, Montgomery County, MD, has over one household in twenty below the
poverty level. The impact is particularly hard on children, in whom malnutrition
is shown in poor learning ability, with consequences that reach far ahead into
their adult lives.
 | Food
(click here for detailed needs) Staple
food products that are high in nutrition are always in demand. While you may
think a can of beans is "camping food," to a child who has missed
a day's meals (or more) a can of beans represents a gift of immeasurable
value.
Food that has passed its saleable freshness date
is still valuable to those with no food. Wholesalers and retailers who would
otherwise send this food to the landfill are encouraged to contact
us.
