More than 400,000 Minnesotans face food insecurity.

Minnesotans made 3.6 million visits to their food shelf last year,

This marks the 11th consecutive year with over 3 million food shelf visits.

In Minnesota, 1 in 6 children is food-insecure — and 1 in 4 of these hungry kids comes from a household that doesn’t qualify for free or reduced-price school meals.

Seniors are Minnesota’s fastest growing group of food shelf visitors.

Senior visits to food shelves have increased 31% since 2019.

Black, Indigenous, and non-white families are twice as likely to experience food insecurity than white families.
