And welcome again to Forum on Michael Krasny.

Second Harvest of Silicon Valley now helps feed about 500,000 people every month,

double what it served before the

pandemic. Across the Bay Area, food banks are struggling to keep up with increased demand for

food and volunteers. The Corps Bay Area has lost close to 350,000 jobs during the past year.

As of September, that's according to the State Economic Development Department, which has led

many more people to rely on food banks.

We're going to talk now about how food banks are responding in this time of crisis and how you can help.

Joining us, Paul Ash, Executive Director of San Francisco Marin Food Bank, and welcome to the program, Paul Ash.

Thank you, Michael.
