When most people think of hunger, they imagine distant places or rare circumstances. But as Janet Michael, host of "The Valley Today," and her guest Les Sinclair, Communications and PR Manager for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, reveal in their recent conversation, hunger is a persistent, often invisible challenge right here in our own communities—one that doesn't care what month it is or what's on the calendar. Beyond Hunger Action Month: A Year-Round Crisis September is recognized as Hunger Action Month, a time when organizations and advocates rally to raise awareness about food insecurity. But as Les points out, “Hunger doesn't take a vacation. Hunger doesn't have a calendar. Hunger doesn't keep a schedule.” The need for food assistance is constant, affecting families, seniors, veterans, and individuals who may be working multiple jobs yet still struggle to put food on the table. He shares a poignant story of a family forced to sell their couch and kitchen table just to afford food for their children, illustrating the tough choices many face. “It's an invisible plight,” he says, noting that hunger often hides behind closed doors, affecting people who outwardly seem to be managing. The Ripple Effects of Food Insecurity The conversation delves into the broader impacts of hunger, from lost productivity in the workplace to the emotional toll on families. Janet & Les discuss how food is often the first thing sacrificed when money is tight—people skip meals to afford gas for work or pay essential bills. The consequences are far-reaching: children struggle to focus in school, adults become less productive at work, and the stress of food insecurity can lead to isolation and short tempers. Les references the work of local organizations like Bright Futures, which supports children in need, and highlights the saying, “Hungry stomachs have no ears,” underscoring how difficult it is for children to learn when they're hungry. Community Solutions: Food Pantries and the Power of Giving The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, along with a network of local pantries and innovative community fridges, plays a crucial role in addressing hunger. Les explains how donations—whether food or money—are maximized through the food bank's buying power, turning a single dollar into multiple meals. He also describes the logistical support the food bank provides, from refrigeration units to administrative assistance, ensuring that pantries can serve those in need efficiently. Janet & Les celebrate the rise of community fridges, where anyone can anonymously donate food, and emphasize that every little bit helps. “If you can buy an extra gallon of milk or a bag of apples, you can make a difference,” Janet says. The Policy Landscape: Government Shutdowns and Nutrition Programs The discussion turns to the impact of government policies on food security. With the threat of a government shutdown looming, Les explains how federal employees and contractors—many living paycheck to paycheck—can suddenly find themselves in need of food assistance. The ripple effect extends to local businesses and the broader economy, as uncertainty leads people to cut back on spending. Les also highlights the importance of federal nutrition programs like SNAP and the Emergency Food Assistance Program, which not only help individuals but also stimulate local economies. He urges listeners to advocate for strong, fully funded nutrition programs and to reach out to elected officials, noting that hunger is a bipartisan issue that affects everyone, regardless of background or political affiliation. Reach Congressman Ben Cline's office here: https://cline.house.gov/  A Call to Action: Volunteer, Donate, Advocate As the episode draws to a close, Janet and Les encourage listeners to get involved. Volunteerism is down nationwide, but the need is greater than ever. Whether it's stocking shelves, offering administrative skills, or simply sharing information on social media, every contribution counts. The Blue Ridge Area Food Bank's website offers resources for finding local pantries, making donations, and signing up to volunteer. “Hunger doesn't care about your race, creed, or political party,” Les reminds us. “We just want to make sure people have the food they need so they can thrive.” Conclusion The fight against hunger is ongoing, and it requires the collective effort of individuals, organizations, and policymakers. As this conversation makes clear, everyone has a role to play—whether by donating, volunteering, or raising awareness. Because in the end, everyone deserves enough to eat.

As federal funding cuts shift more responsibility for food insecurity to local communities, Phil Buchanan and Grace Nicolette talk with Julie Butner, president and CEO of the Tarrant Area Food Bank, one of the largest food banks in the United States serving 13 counties around Fort Worth, Texas. Julie reveals that food bank clients are often working families who simply can't afford basic necessities and explains how modern food banks have evolved far beyond emergency food distribution to address root causes through healthcare partnerships, nutrition education, and community gardens. This eye-opening conversation challenges common misconceptions about who needs food assistance and addresses debates about the roles of government and private philanthropy. Julie also offers practical guidance on how donors can make the greatest impact, whether through volunteering, financial support, or advocacy.

In today's show Riley talks about Iowa State Fair food donations with Annette Hacker of the Food Bank of Iowa, Andy visits with our 2025 IFAA Scholarship winner Megan Clark, and Dustin wraps up Iowa Corn Day coverage with Iowa Corn Promotion Board Incoming President Joe Roberts.

In a recent episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael welcomed Les Sinclair, Communications and PR Manager for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, for an in-depth conversation about the organization's essential work and the growing challenges of food insecurity in Virginia. Covering a staggering 12,000 square miles—about a third of the state—the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank serves as a logistical powerhouse, operating four distribution centers in Verona, Charlottesville, Winchester, and Lynchburg. Les described the food bank as the “big umbrella” for a network of local pantries, likening its role to a Walmart distribution center that supplies smaller “stores” (the pantries) with food and resources. The food bank's impact is immense: last year alone, it distributed 32 million pounds of food, including nearly 10 million pounds of fresh produce, to partner agencies. This focus on healthy, nutritious options is intentional, as Les emphasized the importance of fighting chronic disease and supporting overall community health. The organization's reach extends beyond food, providing grants for equipment like coolers, refrigerators, and even computers to help pantries better serve their guests. These “Partner in Impact and Innovation” grants are vital for smaller pantries that lack the resources to access large-scale government programs like those run by the USDA. Les and Janet discussed the rising demand for food assistance, with the food bank experiencing year-over-year growth rates of 16%—even higher than during the pandemic's peak. Inflation, high housing and childcare costs, and stagnant wages have pushed more families, seniors, and children to seek help. More than half of those served are children and seniors, dispelling the myth that food pantries only serve the unemployed or “lazy.” Many recipients are hardworking individuals facing temporary setbacks, such as job loss, divorce, or unexpected expenses. The conversation also highlighted the importance of community support. Financial donations are especially powerful, with every dollar helping to provide three meals thanks to the food bank's ability to purchase in bulk. Volunteers are the lifeblood of the organization, contributing over 2,500 hours of work—equivalent to 14 full-time positions. Les encouraged listeners to consider all forms of giving, from time and money to advocacy and even sharing social media posts to raise awareness. Hunger Action Month, observed in September, is a key initiative for the food bank, focusing on education, volunteerism, and advocacy. Les urged the community to support a strong Farm Bill, which funds critical programs like SNAP and the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP). The food bank also distributes non-food essentials such as laundry detergent, pet food, and hygiene products, recognizing that these items can make a significant difference for struggling families. The conversation concluded with a look to the future, as the food bank welcomes new CEO Kari Jorgensen Diener, a humanitarian leader with global experience. Les expressed optimism about the organization's direction and reiterated the importance of collective action: whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, everyone has a role to play in ending hunger. For more information, resources, or to get involved, visit the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank's website: https://www.brafb.org/ which features a food finder tool and easy ways to donate or volunteer. Together, the community can ensure that no one in the Valley goes hungry.

Among the spending cuts in the big tax bill signed into law by President Donald Trump last week: $186 billion over the next decade to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, also known as food stamps. Community food banks are already strained. Now, many worry whether they'll be able to keep up. Also on the program: Delta tries to crack the "last mile" in parcel delivery, and new tariffs could hit in three and a half weeks.
