According to the Food Bank Council of Michigan, the number of families classified as “food insecure” makes up 13 percent of Michigan households. “Food insecure” families are classified by the United States Department of Agriculture as having difficulty consistently getting the food they need for an active and healthy life.
The Feeding America (FA) system in Michigan provides emergency food support for nearly 1.2 million different people annually. Of those who depend on the FA system for emergency food support, 42% report having to choose between paying for food and paying for utilities or heating fuel.
Donations will be accepted at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® of Brighton’s home office located at 2508 Harte Dr., Brighton Michigan.
