Child Hunger Awareness Week Observed in Broome County

Programs are being launched this week as part of Child Hunger Awareness Week to confront food challenges in the community.

The Community Hunger Outreach Warehouse has a new CHOW Community Food Bus that will serve as a mobile food stand.  The retro-fitted school bus will provide low cost fresh produce in areas of the county that lack access to affordable, healthy food.

A free screening of the documentary concerning the hunger problem, A Place At The Table, will be held June 5 at Binghamton High School starting at 6 p.m.
