From the Roxbury Township Public Schools' Board of Education Business Office- 

Dear School Community Members:

More than 34 million people, including 9 million children experience food insecurity in the United States. Part of what makes food insecurity so difficult to solve is that the underlying causes — poverty, unemployment/under-employment, and inconsistent access to enough healthy food — are often deeply interconnected. Moving in and out of food insecurity adds more stress to a household that may already be wrestling with instability and unpredictability.

The Ray of Hope Foundation is working with local merchants to help end hunger in the Roxbury community. The foundation would like to help provide support to Roxbury students and families who face food insecurity. If you or someone you know is in need of assistance, please reach out to the Ray of Hope foundation at info@rayofhopefoundation.com
