Kristin Warzocha
President & CEO, Greater Cleveland Food Bank
Kristin provided an overview of the organization's significant contributions to the community. She discussed the challenges posed by recent reductions in SNAP benefits and the heightened demand for food assistance, particularly following the longest federal government shutdown, which left over 200,000 individuals in the service area facing food insecurity. She noted that the Food Bank had to ramp up its food distribution efforts, achieving record levels in November, and emphasized the critical role of community support in enabling the organization to purchase ten times more food than the previous year.
Kristin also addressed the ongoing challenges related to reduced state and federal food supplies, which are expected to persist into the next year, and the impact of rising living costs on food assistance needs. She highlighted the Food Bank's strategic planning efforts, including a scenario plan to navigate uncertainties and the necessity for quick action during crises. Kristin encouraged community engagement and awareness regarding food insecurity, inviting participants to volunteer or partner with the Food Bank to help address these pressing issues.
