IT’S ABOUT INSPIRING WHAT MIGHT COME NEXT.”

They’ve had to navigate the pandemic and its continued fallout in numerous ways: rapidly changing health regulations, staffing challenges, and supply shortages – to name just a few. Not to mention the public perception of it all. It’s been harder than ever!

estaurant culture is a crucial component of the val ue of a community. It impacts the lives and experi ences of the people who live there, it affects visitors’ interest in spending time there, and it makes up an important piece of the community’s overall economic and cultural success. So it’s critical we as a community give credence and support to the sustainability and growth of our restaurant scene – especially after the wild ride of the last couple of years.

Feed My People is the charity beneficiary of this year’s Chippewa Valley Restaurant Week, which runs Sept. 16-25 at nearly 30 participat ing restaurants around the region. Specifically, a share of proceeds from the Fall Foliage & Farm Tour on Sept. 24 will be donated to Feed My People. (Learn more about how you can take part in that event, which includes firsthand experiences at local farms as well as a delicious lunch, on page 6.)

Among the food bank’s most frequent benefi ciaries are children. Last year alone, Feed My People provided more than 224,000 meals to kids –amounting to 615 hungry children fed each day.

Today, while the employment picture has brightened, rising prices have made it hard to fill grocery carts for many people in the 14-county area Feed My People serves.

“Inflation’s really having an affect on people,” said Jeremy Gilbert, corporate giving specialist for Feed My People. “The people who are not able to deal with the rising cost of inflation are the people we see in our lines.”

BANKING ON HELP

Feed My People, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary, distributes 6.6 million pounds of food annually, most of it through more than 260 hunger relief programs across western Wisconsin. These include the likes of the Community Table, which serves free meals daily in Eau Claire, as well as numerous food pantries and meal programs.

While Feed My People gratefully accepts dona tions of surplus food, it is also in need of financial donations and the help of volunteers. Gilbert noted that many current volunteers are retirees, so it’s important to continue to engage younger generations in the food pantry’s work as well. A good time to do so is during September, which has been designated Hunger Action Month. To learn more about how you can help the hungry during Hunger Action Month, visit give.fmpfoodbank.com/ hungeraction.
