Operation Food view’s the organization’s mission as “to end hunger as a part of the overall community effort to alleviate poverty,” and yet, the demand for emergency food assistance continues to rise year after year. While most of the organization’s resources will be focused on the collection and distribution of food, we will also actively collaborate with other groups to focus on the broader issues of hunger and poverty. Through state-wide, regional, and local collaborations, Operation Food is now focused on finding solutions to hunger, even while we continue to provide food to those in immediate need. The primary reason for hunger and food insecurity is poverty. There is no lack of food, only inequitable distribution. Because many of our residents do not have enough money to buy food or cannot get to affordable food, they go hungry.
