About this listen
Food prices are up, people are stretched thin, and the need is closer than most of us want to believe. Michael Nathanson sits down with Jamie Kendall of the Palm Beach County Food Bank to talk about what food insecurity looks like in Palm Beach County, and what it takes to meet that need with dignity.
They get into the scale of the work, including a network of more than 200 partner agencies, the food bank’s tours and day to day priorities, and the backpack program that sends weekend food home through local schools. Michael also shares a story from Boynton Beach that put the reality of hunger into sharp focus, plus why empathy matters when it’s easy to judge who “should” need help.
They also touch on life in South Florida and beyond, from Lake Worth and Boca Raton to Cleveland roots, plus a quick detour into favorite local restaurants and seafood. If you’ve ever wondered how to give back with time, talent, or treasure, this one makes it simple.
