COVID-19 has exposed and exacerbated the underlying fragility of our social support systems, including food security and depleted the volunteer forces that typically support this work. As a result, more Americans are going hungry and our institutions are struggling to keep up. The demand at food banks across the country has skyrocketed in recent weeks — increasing by as much as 600 percent at some — underscoring just how expansive the effects of the economic downturn have been. In support of Operation Nourish, The Mission Continues Miami Platoon is supporting the Bridge of Hope at their major food distribution event at Redland Christian Academy on August 15th. Please join us in support this major food distribution in Miami-Dade county by loading up vehicle with much needed food. Water and snacks will be provided for volunteers.
