Church Donates 50 Tons of Food

By Dan Gorenstein on Tuesday, April 8, 2008.

The state reports that food stamp demand is up 18 percent compared to this time last year.

The New Hampshire Food Bank says due to changes in the marketplace, it’s harder and harder to secure donations.

All that plus a struggling economy and advocates for the hungry say the need for food is only going up.

New Hampshire Public Radio’s Dan Gorenstein reports that one church has tried to put a dent in the problem.
