The Gift of Food
Episode description
In this heartfelt episode of Simply Authentic, we sit down with Kristy Carter, Executive Director of Least of These, a vital food pantry serving Christian County. Together, we explore the pressing issue of hunger in our community and the critical role Least of These plays in supporting underfed families year-round. Whether it’s providing one or two meals in a crisis or offering ongoing assistance, this incredible organization ensures no one goes hungry.
With food prices continuing to rise, even families with two incomes often struggle to make ends meet, particularly at the end of the month. Kristy shares how Least of These goes beyond simply providing food, empowering families to choose the items they need and offering guidance on preparing nutritious meals. As a full-service resource, they not only help those in immediate need but also connect individuals to other essential services when required.
We also discuss the immense need for volunteers and the countless hours required to keep the pantry running smoothly. Kristy highlights how anyone can make a difference, whether by donating, volunteering, or simply spreading awareness about this vital cause.
Join us for an inspiring conversation about community, compassion, and the year-round fight against hunger. If you’re interested in supporting Least of These, visit their website for more information on how you can help. https://leastofthesefoodpantry.org/
