It’s Up to Us!By: Dan Hyde / Call to ActionThe COVID-19 pandemic has a tragic sidestory.More and more people, especiallychildren, are going hungry every single day.Recent stories have painted a bleak picture of families unable toprovide this most basic of human needs. Adding insult to injury, theworthy non-profits who have historically provided nourishment to theneedy have reached a sad milestone – they are unable to keep up withthe demand!For every family they can serve, two go without. The problem isexasperated because many have been laid off and have no source ofincome to support their families.Sadly, the political parties still can’t agree on what to do as they aremore invested in bickering and pointing fingers at one another! So,what can be done?Since those we elect are more inclined to sit on the sidelines andwatch, I have a suggestion. We, (that’s YOU and me) can step up andinsure that no family will go hungry.Three Square, a 501(c) (3) non-profit (threesquare.org) which hasprovided food to the needy since its inception in 2007, recently statedthat for every dollar donated it can provide three meals.How can they do that? Because of the sheer size of their organization,they can procure vast quantities of food at discounted prices. Everyonenot impacted by a shortage of food should donate a fixed monthlydollar amount to a worthy food non-profit.For example, $5 per month will give a needy family 15 meals. I havebeen an active participant in several of these organizations for yearsbecause I know first-hand what they do and how they do it.Seeing a family’s grief and sense of hopelessness turned to one ofhope once you hand them the food they so desperately need, is, at leastfor me, a life changing experience. Besides Three Square, there areseveral other organizations you can support.I encourage you to check these non-profits as I have done:goodnessgraciousministires.com; catholiccharities.org; servingour kids foundation (recently established in Henderson); andmealsonwheels.org (a federally subsidized program).Can you do your part? I promise, your life will be the richer for it!Dan Hyde is a passionate and effective advocate for the seniorcommunity.
