Episode description

Thanksgiving is a holiday to celebrate what is good in our lives: family, friends, food.

But what if you are among the food insecure?

According to Feeding America, about 42 million people in this nation - 1 in every 8 Americans - are food insecure. For the pediatric population we serve that number is approximately 13 million. One in every six children nationwide, one in every six children in Delaware, and one in every 4 children in Florida who are wondering where their next meal is coming from.

And Nemours associates are already hard at work helping to feed those in their communities who may be hungry.
