Extractions: No summer break for childhood hunger Without school lunches, more kids go hungry By ROBIN BROWN / The News Journal As kids wait in line for food with their parents and grandparents at Alpha Baptist Church 's Pantry of Hope, in Belvedere, volunteer Lisa White can sense their hunger, she said. "Some cry, some are humiliated. Some just stare with absolutely no look on their face at all," White said. "It's heart-breaking." In a state as well-off as Delaware , it may be difficult to imagine children living without food for days, she said, "but there are more every summer." Although Delaware has the nation's lowest percentage of people who consistently go hungry, experts say nutrition becomes a critical child health issue every summer in every state. "Schools letting out for summer can spell trouble for many poor and hungry children who no longer can get school lunches and breakfasts," according to the Food Research and Action Center of Washington, D.C., an anti-hunger advocacy group. In Delaware , more than 45,000 children from low-income families get free or reduced-cost breakfasts and lunches during the school year, but only about 6,000 get the free meals they are eligible for in the summer, said Patricia D. Beebe, executive director of the Food Bank of
How We Help At The Food Bank Of Delaware The Food Bank of delaware is a nonprofit agency distributing food to hungry The benefits of this program include; improved nutrition, lower health care http://www.fbd.org/howwehelp.htm
Extractions: Making the Connection The Food Bank of Delaware and its 242 member agencies work together to improve people's lives. We alleviate hunger by distributing food to our member agencies and by relentlessly asking what we can do to get to the real or root cause of hunger. What would truly enable people to improve their lives and depend on public assistance and programs less? When people have the opportunity to earn a stable and growing income, the cycle of poverty and the need for emergency and ongoing assistance from agencies like ours and those that provide assistance in healthcare, food, and housing can be broken. The old adage about teaching a person to fish for a lifetime instead of feeding that person for one day has helped us to develop the premises used to develop the curriculum for the training and life skills courses. Community Training Kitchen classes are small (15-20 adults) twelve week training opportunities for under/unemployed adults. Students enrolled in our program continue to acquire and maintain high-quality jobs that lift them out of poverty, and pay them at rates higher than they would receive without our training program. Our graduates' entry wages are averaging $8.50 to $9.50 per hour, which is far above the minimum hourly wage of $6.45. In addition to improving the employability of our students, our community training kitchen also prepares nutritious meals for hungry children through our Summer Feeding Program and our Kid's Cafe initiatives.

Perceptions of barriers to health promotion were examined in three groups of individuals with disabilities: (1) those with multiple sclerosis, (2) those with postpolio syndrome, and (3) polio survivors without postpolio syndrome. While there were small statistically significant differences among the three groups, all rated fatigue and impairment as their most frequent problems. For all groups, financial and interpersonal resources contributed significantly to the prediction of barriers, after accounting for perceived impairment. The findings suggest that health professionals should explore thoroughly the nature of individuals' perceived barriers to staying healthy, so that they can target their health-promoting interventions most effectively.
