Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Mary Gamble, the Director of fundraising and communications at Barnardos Ireland, whose mission is to help transform children’s lives through their services, support parents, and challenge society where it fails our children. We learn that more people are dealing with food poverty than many might believe after Mary tells a story about two boys fighting over a bowl of cereal because of how hungry they were. Tune in and learn how you can help out with families that struggle with food poverty.

“We went out to over a thousand adults and did some research about if food poverty is affecting their lives and what came back was so shocking. We found that one in ten adults that we surveyed indicated that they had difficulties in feeding their families, and one in five had skipped meals themselves so that their children could eat enough.” 10:17
