Why Hunger

Meals & Nutrition · Vermont · Free

Connects people to nutritious food and supports community-led solutions to hunger. Built for seniors who can no longer cook safely, can't drive to a grocery store, or are losing weight from low appetite. Congregate meal sites also provide a daily social check-in — many seniors say the conversation matters as much as the food. Many older adults don't apply for SNAP because of stigma; the application is now online in most states and takes 15 minutes. No cost to older adults or the people helping them.
