Tackling Food Insecurity with Second Harvest Food Bank
Manage episode 336859701 series 2423162
In today’s episode, I’m speaking with Nancy Keil, President and CEO of Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee, and Alison McArthur, the Director of Community Achieves at Metro Nashville Public Schools, as we discuss food insecurity across the state of Tennessee and how partnerships with organizations like Second Harvest Food Bank can be valuable resources to school districts. While Second Harvest Food Bank provides a central distribution center to help provide food for hungry people, it also oversees multiple programs that directly benefit school districts, such as the Afterschool Meal Program, the Kids Café, and the School Food Pantry – to name a few. Listen in today to learn more about how school districts can support students and families who struggle with food insecurity.
