According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), over 44 million people (1 in 8), including 13 million children (1 in 5), in the U.S. are food insecure. By volunteering with Zia you are helping cut down those numbers and give children better food options to ultimately help enhance their learning in the classroom and overall lives.
