Hunger Hunger is a really bad and dangerous thing in our world today many kids go to school hungry each day.

How many people in Canada suffer from hunger. Many people do not realize the extent of hunger’s reach in this country. Each month, close to 850,000 Canadians are assisted by food banks, and 36.4% of those helped are children and youth.

Who is turning to food banks? There is no single, typical profile. The people helped include families with children, employed people whose wages are not sufficient to cover basic living thing, individuals on social assistance, and Canadians living on a fixed income, including people with disabilities and seniors.

Percentage of people going to food banks 36.4% of those turning to food banks are children and youth 4.3% of adults helped are over age % of people assisted are Aboriginal 50% of households helped receive social assistance 11.5% have income from current or recent employment 16.4% receive disability-related income supports 8% of food banks ran out of food during the survey period 50% of food banks needed to cut back on the amount of food provided to each household

People assisted by food banks

Thousands of Nova Scotians don't know where their next meal will come from, and many rely on local food banks for assistance. Each year Food Banks Canada releases HungerCount, a comprehensive report that helps us understand who turns to food banks and why. This national study reports on data collected from food banks across the country during the month of March to provide a snapshot of a typical month of food bank use. FEED NOVA SCOTIA annually administers the survey in our province, and the data becomes part of the collective picture of hunger in Canada.HungerCount In March 2013: 21,760 Nova Scotians were assisted by food banks. Meal programs and soup kitchens collectively served 154,330 meals and 18,724 snacks during the same month.
