The Logistical Challenge of Hunger with Rob Williams
Manage episode 286173004 series 2837404
Listen in as Kurt talks with Rob Williams, founder and executive director of Every Meal. Across the United States, one in seven children experiences hunger on a weekly basis. During COVID-19, that number has grown to nearly one in four as schools, where many children receive breakfast and lunch, shut down. Nearly a decade ago, Every Meal stepped in to fill that gap, leaning on Rob’s background in global logistics for direction. What started as a program at one local elementary school has grown to serve 35 school districts across the state, providing more than 3 million meals last year alone. Tune in as Kurt and Rob talk about the roots of hunger and how, at its core, hunger is both simple and solvable.
