PAUL GENCARELLA JR. is married to Betty and they have 2 boys in college and a daughter in her last year of high school. When it comes to hardships and challenging circumstances in life, we all have our fair share. Paul and Betty experienced theirs when their 19-yr-old child was five. He took a bad fall off
the back porch while playing on a chair. He tumbled down 3 steps to the concrete patio and hit his head. The doctor evaluated him and cleared him to go to school with a big scape on his eye socket and a few minor cuts.

Food Insecure Households
For many families in the U.S., the past several years have been difficult. Higher food prices, economic instability, and other factors have made providing for a family even harder. 1 in 8 households in the U.S. is food insecure. That means these families don’t have enough money or resources to buy enough food for everyone in their household.
As recently as 2022, 7.3 million children lived in food insecure households. Also, 16.9% of children live in poverty.
SNAP Benefits
More than 22 million U.S. households use SNAP benefits to help with food costs, as of April 2023. Sometimes known as “food stamps,” SNAP is the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. People who receive SNAP benefits can use it to buy groceries, seeds, and plants for food. SNAP cannot be used to purchase hot food or household items like cleaning supplies, vitamins, or diapers.
