Justice, Not Charity: How to End Hunger At any given time, nearly 1 in 8 of our neighbors in Allegheny County are facing chronic hunger, and 1 in 13 face food insecurity. These low-income families, seniors, and people with disabilities don’t know whether they’ll be able to afford their next meal. Aside from the immeasurable moral costs of hunger in human suffering and indignity, hunger takes a quantifiable toll on public health, education outcomes, and our economy — totalling around $3.25 billion/year in Pennsylvania.
ADDRESSING HUNGER AT ITS ROOT Just Harvest reduces hunger, not by handing out food, but by lifting up those in need. We get at the root causes of food insecurity by leveraging public policies and programs to reduce poverty and improve food access for individuals and communities. We have served Allegheny County for 30 years. In that time we have helped tens of thousands of low-income households keep food on the table by boosting their access to tens of millions of dollars in nutrition assistance, tax credits, and other government benefits for which they’re eligible. We are also a long-time leader of efforts to make the public’s response to hunger – through government policy and civic discourse – more sensible and compassionate. Our strong partnerships with the City of Pittsburgh, the Allegheny County Health Department, the United Way of Southwestern PA, and many other local, state, and national allies further leverage our impact for a powerful return on your dollars.
ABOUT JUST HARVEST Founded in 1986, Just Harvest works in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania to reduce hunger by addressing its root cause: economic injustice. We do this through a focus on public policy, safety net programs, and community food access.
