Food relief moves beyond Covid-19 model
If you know anything about the history of AEHCA you already know a lot of our early activities were providing food relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thankfully that’s passed, and this year we’ve seen our partners in Ipala look at how hunger might have changed and what we should do to adjust. We found that most of the unmet food need in the community is among senior citizens and in rural areas. A first distribution to address our more refined understanding of hunger here took place in August and another will take place in October. At that point we will review again and form a more long-term plan about how we can best help to reduce hunger and how best to form partnerships with other organizations working in the area.
