"Hunger hurts. Hundreds of families are now served by food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters in MetroWest alone," according to the council website.
"Hunger strikes all ages. The elderly, the disabled, the homeless, the unemployed, women and children all need food. It is estimated that 36% of the clients of the food pantries are children. This Good Turn is about 'Kids helping Kids.' Food shortages abound. Over 24 agencies rely on our Scouting for Food to help keep their shelves full for the needy."
