Closing the Hunger Gap

Closing the Hunger Gap is a network working to expand hunger relief beyond food distribution towards strategies that address the root causes of hunger & poverty

@HungerGap, we know that racial injustice and privilege are at the root of economic injustice. That economic injustice is the root cause of hunger. And the only way to end hunger is to end racial injustice. #fromcharitytosolidarity

Using the charity model- #FoodBank - we have not made a dent in addressing endemic hunger and food insecurity. We believe big shifts towards valuing and centering people impacted by racism, hunger and economic exploitation are needed to #EndHunger Sign on https://t.co/snDFNIh9kX

What is a thriving wage? The income needed for people to prosper well and flourish, not just cover their basic needs. This allows for people to prepare for emergencies and pursue joy! Visit https://t.co/5I6HXCU7YU for more info on how this can #EndHunger & lead to #FoodJustice
