An impactful community conversation exploring how food connects to not only the stories of individual families, but also the systemic wellness of our neighborhoods and state. 

You are Invited

We invite you to join us for the live taping of a new Arizona PBS show called Arizona Matters: Food as Stability, Health & Hope where we’ll be discussing the state of hunger in Arizona and how food is a critical piece of wellness. A panel discussion brings together St. Vincent de Paul CEO Shannon Clancy, ASU College of Health Solutions Dean Michael Yudell, and Arizona WIC Director Marlene Hernandez to discuss the interconnectedness of food, health, and stability and how systems and people can help.

About St. Vincent de Paul's Feeding Our Neighbors Together Campaign

Millions of Arizonans face food insecurity every day, not knowing where their next meal is coming from or having adequate access to nutritious food. With the rising cost of living, especially the rising cost of groceries, we're seeing more families and individuals living paycheck-to-paycheck struggling to make ends meet and keep themselves and their kids fed.

Feeding Our Neighbors Together is a statewide food drive that harnesses the power of community to face this growing issue of food insecurity that we're seeing across Arizona.
