USDA Adds Food Bank Funds

Due to historic spikes in unemployment rates, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has augmented its funding to food banks by $100 million. The New York Times reports the move as an upshot of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.

Feeding America, in a survey released July, reported an unprecedented demand for “emergency food assistance” from its low-income respondents. It was reportedly 30% higher than the previous year.

This sum funding comes on top of the $250 million in annual funds given by the USDA to America’s food banks. To date, the USDA’s Emergency Food Assistance Program has budgeted $29.4 million for pork; $25.2 million for cheese; $15.8 million for poultry; $15.5 million for canned fruits; and $13.3 million for peanut goods. It covers food banks, soup kitchens, pantries, and similar relief agencies.

Clyde Fitzgerald Jr., an executive director at Second Harvest Food Bank in North Carolina, seconds the motion. “The increased demand is so strong and so sustained,” he said. “This hasn’t been like a little blip. We’ve been at this for twelve months.”

For GAP Food Bank director Pari Blackman, hunger has taken its toll on unemployed Californians, many of whom had enjoyed steady income for years. She said 400 families now line up to their Rancho Cucamonga bank each week, compared to just 240 in 2008.
