By definition, hunger is a condition in which adequate nutritional needs are not being met. In assisting families and individuals with food, we need to make available the foods which are nutritionally adequate and provide information concerning dietary needs.

Greensboro Urban Ministry organizes major annual food drives at local grocery stores and post offices. Each year, the food drives have been more successful than in previous years. This is due in large part to the support of the local grocery stores, post offices, and WFMY News2. Since 2001, we have experienced a dramatic increased need for food for families. More than 1,190,232 million pounds of food was provided to needy families in 2007.
