Feeding the hungry can seem like an overwhelming and never-ending task, but one Fayetteville nonprofit has taken on the challenge.
âFood insecurity is widespread across our community,â said Kelton Hays, executive director of The Cobblestone Project, a nonprofit farm focused on hunger relief through sustainable agriculture. âEvery single person knows somebody or has come into contact with somebody who is food insecure. Something like 1 in 6 adults and 1 in 4 children in Arkansas are considered food insecure.â
Itâs a problem that doesnât know race, or ethnicity or even socio-economic status. More than ever, 2020 brought to light just how many Americans live paycheck to paycheck.
