Each year, approximately 34% of all Nourish clients are vulnerable and food insecure children. 1 in 4 kids in Washington lives in a household that is struggling to put healthy food on the table. Washington ranks 40th out of 50 states in reaching low-income children with summer nutrition. We need your help!
More and more of the clients we are serving are visiting a food bank for the first time in their lives. Often, these are neighbors who are working full time jobs but are still unable to afford the cost of living. We are even seeing families with two spouses working full time but are still unable to pay all their bills in these difficult times. The cost of living has skyrocketed, but their wages have remained stagnant. Nourish is here to help stabilize the lives of Pierce County citizens struggling so mightily right now.
