HUNGER COUNT 2009
Food Banks Canada just released the numbers for Hunger Count 2009, a comprehensive report on hunger and food bank use in Canada.
In the past year we have seen an increase in food bank usage across the country, and Alberta food banks are reporting the highest increases since statistics were collected just one year ago. Locally, our food banks are also seeing increases in the request for support from community members.
Below is a summary of how numbers at Interfaith Food Bank Society of Lethbridge compare with the national and provincial averages.
