One out of every eight individuals are food insecure, and 14.6% of individuals live at or below the poverty line in S.D., according to Feeding South Dakota, a hunger relief organization fighting to eliminate hunger in S.D.
For an opportunity to learn more about hunger and poverty in S.D., Dakota State University students and surrounding community members are invited to experience the 2nd Annual Taste of Hunger Banquet on Tuesday, Jan. 22nd, at 6:00 p.m. in the Trojan Center Underground on the DSU campus. Participants are encouraged to bring a canned donation for the Lake County Food Pantry.
