The St. Croix Valley Food Bank has an ambitious goal for 2025: to provide over five million pounds of food to the four-county region in Western Wisconsin that it serves. That number might seem like a lot, but it's what is needed to help address the growing issue of food insecurity in the region.
On this week's episode of St. Croix Stories, Lee Kroll and Jim Dahl of the St. Croix Valley Food Bank join to share more about the organization's mission to help end hunger. As a longtime nonprofit leader, Lee joined the food bank in November of last year and is quickly learning about the rise of food insecurity. Jim has worked in the food insecurity space for a long time and helped start the St. Croix Valley Food Bank. The duo offer their insights on the issue of hunger, and share how others in the community can help the St. Croix Valley Food Bank reach its goal for 2025 and beyond.
