During this week’s airing of NC Spin the food bank and emergency food aid crisis was a topic of discussion. This holiday season 1 in 6 North Carolinians need food aid. The Second Harvest Food Bank noted that people coming in for aid is the highest they’ve seen in years, in addition to the fact more people with full time jobs (vs. senior citizens, large families and folks on disability) are coming in for help.
