Description
The Hand Up Project, a nonprofit partner with the Oregon Food Bank, focuses on serving LGBTQ communities, as a way to help those that may feel uncomfortable or unwelcome at a traditional food pantry. U.S. Census data shows LGBTQ households need food assistance at double the rate of other groups. More research suggests people of color who identify as LGBTQ+ have nearly three times the risk of poverty.
