The local need in Boston
In Boston, tens of thousands of residents struggle with food insecurity. Many families eligible for SNAP benefits are not enrolled, missing out on crucial support. Areas like Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan are especially impacted. The need is palpable, as local food banks report surges in demand, often falling short of the necessary resources to keep shelves stocked. With rising living costs, these gaps only widen, affecting children, seniors, and working families in our community.
