One woman is working to make sure people feel comfortable and dignified when they receive food assistance in Pierce and King Counties. Although the pantries sitting in parking lots in the area, like in Spanaway, may look out of place, their goal is to make people feel like they belong. There are nine free food hubs across Pierce and King counties ran by Angel Swanson and her organization Feeding Feasible Feasts. They are always stocked and unlocked. "We go through, in a hub in a day, maybe 100 to 120 loaves of bread,” said Swanson. The hubs are open seven days a week, 24 hours a day, and are open to anyone. The hub in Spanaway serves more than 100 visitors a day. Since the hubs are not staffed, the doors have devices that count how many times they are opened. “So, the idea here is just to try to establish as many of these as we can in the communities that most desperately need it,” said Swanson. Angel Swanson knows how important it is to have food available for families, because she was once in need herself. “When I first came to the state, I was at the food bank once a week, I had seven kids,” said Swanson.
