Food insecurity is n

Food insecurity is not just about hunger. It is a serious health risk.

Food-insecure older adults are:

💠19% more likely to have high blood pressure
💠71% more likely to have congestive heart failure
💠74% more likely to have diabetes
💠64% more likely to have experienced a heart attack

Nearly 14 million older Americans are threatened by or experiencing hunger. The impact goes far beyond an empty plate. It increases hospitalizations, worsens chronic conditions, and puts independence at risk.

Nutritious meals do more than satisfy hunger. They support heart health, stabilize blood sugar, and help seniors remain healthy at home.

Right now, too many seniors are waiting for the nutrition and care they need. Together, we can help #EndTheWait.

Please donate today and be part of the solution. www.allentownfoodbank.org
