Ratoinale
Household food insecurity in NB in 2014 is 15.2% and 21% of children live in food insecure households.
At a rate that is double that of both the Provincial and National HungerCount 2016 figures, Saint John’s food banks collectively helped over 3000 citizens a month in 2016. In the same year, Romero House Soup Kitchen served just under 80,000 Meals, the highest year for meals served since they opened their doors 35 years ago. 1 in 3 individuals needing a food bank in Saint John are children under the age of 18.
Goals
