New Study Shows Alarming Increases in Hungry Families in Central Ohio

A study out today indicates hunger in Ohio has increased by double-digits in recent years.

Evelyn Baehm of the Mid-Ohio FoodBank says they are now serving a quarter of a million clients, 28% more than just four years ago.

More than one third of them are children under the age of 18.

Evelyn Baym is senior vice president of strategic initiatives at the Mid-Ohio FoodBank.
