MKE Grocery Buddy: a grassroots response to food insecurity in Milwaukee

Over the last month, local food pantries say they’ve seen an increase in need not seen since the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. One group of women have stepped in to try to meet the needs of the community. They created a mutual aid organization, MKE Grocery Buddy, to connect people experiencing food insecurity with people who can help. WUWM’s Jimmy Gutierrez brings us the story and the current food needs around Milwaukee.
