GRCC’s Education Department is putting on a Sack Supper Food Drive from March 1-31, 2011 that will benefit Kids Food Basket. As highlighted by a recent article in the Grand Rapids Press, food instability is a problem for many children in our community. From KFB’s website: “Between 2000 and 2006, children ages 5 to 17 living in poverty increased from 9% to 16% in Kent County. Today, 30,000 children in Kent County live in poverty.”
