Fighting Hunger, Nourishing Hope in New Mexico

New Mexico has one of the highest hunger rates in the U.S. – 1 in 6 of our neighbors struggles with food insecurity. Parents are skipping meals so their children don’t go hungry, and seniors are forced to choose between essential medication and a bag of groceries. Hunger is here in our community, but it doesn’t have to be. With compassion, dignity, and collective support, we can ensure that every family has access to nutritious food and a path toward stability. Together, we can change what hunger looks like in New Mexico.
