Giving with Impact Podcast: Addressing Hunger in America: There’s very little resiliency left in the system
Posted by Stanford Social Innovation Review on May 27, 2025
Food pantries across the United States are experiencing rising demand and shrinking resources. Guests in this episode discuss these challenges, US public policy to alleviate hunger, and how donors can support food pantries and anti-hunger organizations in a time of increased need and economic uncertainties.
Leaders from two anti-hunger organizations in the United States discuss the realities they see on the frontlines of food insecurity: rising demand, shrinking resources, and a lack of political will to address hunger and its root causes. Kyle Endres, executive director of We Don’t Waste; Vince Hall, chief government relations officer at Feeding America; and Alisia Robin, senior manager of strategic partnerships and nonprofit outreach at DAFgiving360 join Stanford Social Innovation Review’s (SSIR) Barbara Wheeler-Bride to talk about these challenges and how donors can support food pantries and anti-hunger organizations in a time of increased need and economic uncertainties.
