the project
Over the period of years the Global Bassolians for Development and progress observed that food insecurity is a serious problem in Rhode Island. Many of our seniors in Rhode Island face a lot of challenges to actually buying food. Even in area with more suppermarkets, Seniors face too many challenges to purchase food for themselves. The latest state of senior hunger in America report from feeding America found that about one in 14 seniors (7.1%) in the providence metroplitan area are food insecure. The consequence of not having enough access to healthy food are well-research and be dire. Due to the insecurity food many seniors experience more likely to have chronic health conditions; 19% more likely to experience high blood pressure, 90% more likely to experience asthma 233% more likely to experience depression Recent reseearch also found that older women in Rhode Island are likely to worry about buying food. On average, nearly a quarter of seniors in Rhode Island have poor access to supermarkets. Poor access for seniors is highest in new shoreham and warren. Due to the food insecurity our seniors face in Rhode Island the Global Bassolians for Development and Progress family will take the initiative to join others humanitarians organizations to provide foor for our seniors communities with in the Rhode Island area. The Global Bassolians for Development and Progress family will continue to provide food for the seniors even by the grace of God the COVID-19 Pandemic is over, because we learn that the food insecurity is one of the more challenges our seniors face within Rhode Island.
