What's Going On: 40 Years Fighting Hunger – Philabundance, CityStep – Dance, Expression, and Community in Motion - Philadelphia Community Podcast
Philadelphia Community Podcast
This week, we sit down with Loree Jones Brown, CEO of Philabundance, to discuss the organization’s 40th anniversary and the mounting challenges in the fight against hunger. As federal funding cuts slash critical food programs and inflation drives grocery prices higher, Philabundance is doubling down on its mission to feed communities across Southeastern PA and Southern NJ. Hear how the loss of programs like LFPA and TEFAP could mean over 1.1 million fewer meals—and what we can all do to help. 📣 Call to Action: Support Philabundance, advocate for SNAP, Medicaid, and school meals, and demand protection for essential safety nets.
