Food insecure residents in northeast Kansas were almost faced with a multi-week gap in food boxes after a federal program didn’t receive funding in time, but Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas stepped in to fill the funding gap.
Congress approved the fifth round of “purchases” for the USDA’s Farmers to Families Food Box program when it passed the COVID-19 relief bill in late December. But it will take weeks before the $1.5 billion in federal funding can get the program running again.
Blue Cross and Blue Shield granted up to $350,000 to the Topeka Rescue Mission’s Operation Food Secure initiative to ensure there is no gap in food supply in northeast Kansas.
