Pandemic Is Making More And More Americans Go Hungry

The novel coronavirus pandemic has not only turned the economy upside-down, it's sent the number of hungry Americans skyrocketing.

Feeding America says the rate of food insecurity in the US is expected to rise at least 12.5% from 2018.

At the same time, Elle Magzine reports the number of food-insecure people may rise by a minimum of 40.5 million.

Feeding America volunteer Mamie Cain says the pandemic has led to widespread job loss in her Mississippi community, driving up demand for food assistance.

My family and volunteers that assist, they do not waver.

Even though we all are scared of this COVID, they do not waver.
