Donate Extra Food
I think people at homes should donate foods they don't use or eat.
People are wasting too much food. When people go grocery shopping, they buy too much, and when they cook, often they don't use that extra food and they just throw it away. I know this because my family does it, most families do it and it becomes a bad habit.
Some families don't have the money to buy food. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, unemployment and food insecurity soared. In 2020, over 60 million people turned to food banks and community programs for help putting food on the table. (“Hunger in America/Feeding America” ) COVID brought unemployment, and families didn't know how to put food on the table. That's when they went to food banks to get food on the table.
Food pantries need more food. The pandemic has increased food insecurity among families with children and communities of color, who already faced hunger at much higher rates before the pandemic. A lot of families got unemployed because of COVID-19 and that caused not being able to feed their family/take care of them, some families are still struggling financially, this is why food pantries need more food so they can eat and not starve.
In conclusion, in America right now we need to stop wasting food. Food pantries need more food because families are hungry. Families just don't have the money to put food on the table.
