For every meal the Feeding America network provides, SNAP provides nine.

Justine Koksal, who leads operations at the Food Bank of the Albemarle in northeast North Carolina, sees every day how the two work together. Food banks can respond in a moment of need, while SNAP gives families the ability to plan ahead and choose what works for them.

"SNAP provides families with the dignity to select foods that are most appropriate for their household, whether it's because of their cultural preferences or health needs," Justine says.

Two systems, one goal: keeping families moving forward.

Hunger is a challenge we can overcome together. 🧡

Our latest Map the Meal Gap study shows that food insecurity exists in every single county and congressional district in the U.S. That means our neighbors, in every community, are facing impossible choices every day.

But here's what else is true: when we understand hunger locally, we can end it together.

August is National Wellness Month, and it's a good reminder that health starts long before a doctor's visit. It starts with what's on our plates.

Nutritious food is the foundation of wellness. It fuels kids at school, parents at work, and grandparents staying active in their communities. That's why the Feeding America network works to make sure neighbors have access to fresh produce, protein, and pantry staples, and why we partner with healthcare providers through Food is Medicine programs that treat access to nutritious food as essential care.

Because wellness isn't a luxury. It's something every neighbor deserves.

"It's folks that we are walking next to on the sidewalk, playing next to in a park with our children, shopping next to in the same markets."

That's how Carlos Rodriguez, president of our partner food bank City Harvest in New York City, describes the neighbors experiencing food insecurity across his community. Not distant. Not different. Neighbors.

Carlos sees firsthand how rising costs are stretching household budgets, and how SNAP helps neighbors stay food secure while they keep working, caregiving, and moving toward their goals — whether that's finishing school or building a career.

"When people are fed and properly nourished, what limitations are there?" he says. "All barriers become second to just the ability to think through them and push through them."
Neighbors like the mother Carlos describes, who "is going to figure out that next solution" for her family, no matter what. That determination is the story behind SNAP and the work City Harvest does every day.
