Take Action
Advocate
Approximately 300,000 people in our 50-county service area are at risk of hunger — the majority of whom are women, children, seniors, the working poor and people with disabilities.
Your voice can help God’s Pantry Food Bank make a positive difference for Kentuckians who struggle to choose between food, utility bills, rent and medical expenses. The Food Bank’s Advocacy Center provides current opportunities to encourage a lasting effect on the situation of low-income Kentuckians through legislative change, awareness of assistance opportunities and public hunger-awareness.
Advocacy can seem complicated and intimidating, but it does not have to be. There are some basic rules that anyone can follow, and everyone – including the least experienced – can learn to be effective.
We’ve created the following resources to serve as an introduction and reference guide to help you become an effective advocate. Feel free to share these materials far and wide. If you should have any questions or want any further support, contact Mandy Brajuha, External Relations Coordinator at 859-288-5324.
