Food Council to Focus on Feeding Prince William’s Impoverished

MANASSAS, Va. -- Not knowing where one’s next meal will come from, or when it will come, is a widespread problem.

So, some area leaders in their respective fields decided to do something about it on the local level. On Thursday, the Greater Prince William Food Council will launch. The group, an idea born out of Leadership Prince William;s Class of 2014, will focus its efforts on making food more readily available to children and seniors in our community.

We all recognized in order to have any kind of an impact in whatever direction we wanted to take, we needed to have those involved with emergency food assistance, school meals, and anyone who helps connect at risk people for hunger with food be apart of our group,” said Greater Prince William Food Council Chairwoman Pam Ryan.
