SENIOR FOOD PROGRAMS
Many Nigerians age 60 and over want to be enjoying their retirement. Instead, many struggles because of food insecurity. To better understand the complex relationships between food insecurity, older age, and other related factors, The Samaritans Foundation believes that hunger among the senior population aged 50-59 as well as 60 and above.
We live in a land of plenty. We live in a land blessed with an abundance of nutritious food. But, we also live in a land where there is poverty and hunger and limited access to that bounty of food. We live in a land where we throw away almost 40% of the food we have and yet millions of seniors wonder whether they will be able to count on eating tomorrow.
Somebody can change all that, come along and let’s all succeed together!
