"Individuals in this situation often experience challenges affording adequate housing, healthcare, transportation and other basic needs. In the aftermath of the pandemic and with rising inflation, many are struggling to make ends meet. For many, fresh produce is the first thing to fall off their grocery lists. This lack of nutritious food can be associated with a variety of adverse health and social outcomes that can affect nearly every aspect of one's life. This is why Hawaiʻi Foodbank prioritizes the distribution of nutritious foods—particularly fresh fruits and vegetables." There are lots of ways that people in need can find help. "Those seeking assistance can go to the "Find Help" tab on our website, hawaiifoodbank.org/help, which has a food assistance finder with distribution locations, food pantries, and some of our program sites. The page also lists assistance links by island for those residing outside of Oʻahu. We and our network of over 200 agency partners are here to help you and your ʻohana, so please, do not hesitate to reach out for support," Bartenstein said.
