Hunger can be commonplace in the lives of many Kentuckians. It affects people all of ages and of all backgrounds. It is not limited to rural areas, but is also prevelant in urban food deserts such as Lexington. Kentucky is affected by hunger more so than most states across the nation.

Thankfully, hunger has a cure. For 56 years, God’s Pantry has been collecting and distributing donated food to the people who need it most. Today, God’s Pantry works with more than 275 partner agencies in Central and Eastern Kentucky to fight hunger and alleviate the symptoms that accompany it. ​
