Social Issue Spotlight: Hunger & Food Insecurity

Hunger is on the rise globally due to factors stemming from climate change, the COVID-19 pandemic, and conflict. Communities across the United States have been hard hit, with 34 million Americans now identified as food insecure—9 million of these being children. It’s critical that we understand the barriers to food access affecting communities—and how we can each take action to support nonprofits working to provide this service.   
  
Taproot is hosting a panel of nonprofit leaders on Tuesday, April 11 at 1 PM ET/10 AM PT for an open conversation that spotlights:  
• Hunger and food insecurity challenges that people are facing across the country 
• Community-driven solutions that nonprofit organizations are implementing 
• The support these organizations need—right now—from skills-based volunteers  
  
If you’re interested in learning more about food insecurity or how your volunteerism can support this important social issue, this panel is for you! This free discussion highlights a pressing social issue and create connections that drive positive change. Bring your colleagues and bring your questions!
