Feeding America Kentucky’s Heartland has announced a new initiative, aimed at helping and better serving minority and rural communities. The organization’s new Diversity Initiative includes several phases to combat the problems they say are present in the 42 counties they serve.
Director of Communications and Marketing Jaime Thomas says more mobile food pantries and freezer pods will help bring more food to underserved communities. Thomas says the most important phase, however, is creating sustainable change in communities.
