Continued investment necessary in federal nutrition programs to reduce hunger and poverty. More than 41 million Americans lived in households struggling with food insecurity — limited or uncertain access to enough food — in 2016, according to a new report released today by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Economic Research Service. The data reveal a small and not statistically significant decline in household food insecurity in 2016 from the previous year, with the rate dropping from 12.7 to 12.3 percent.

We have freight, cold storage, and food bank partners lined-up and ready to receive your seafood donations.

Please join NFI and other seafood leaders who are responding to this immediate need. Call or email us with your pledge. We will ensure your donation quickly gets to people struggling to get back on their feet after these devastating storms. 206-842-3609 / jharmon@seashare.org / www.seashare.org Thank you!

It's a freezer! And it's currently en route to tiny St. Paul Island, in the Bering Sea. We donated 900 pounds of halibut for people struggling with hunger on St. Paul earlier this year. We realized that if SeaShare is going to make more regular donations in St. Paul, where the needs are great, the community needs more freezer space. Thanks to the Terry Shaff Memorial Fund, we're sending this new three door reach-in freezer to the Aleut Community of St. Paul Island (ACSPI), with transportation from Seattle donated by Coastal Transportation. ACSPI will install the freezer in their food bank, and will use it to store future seafood donations and other frozen foods.

Done with the first leg of the race, that is. In light winds and rain, Team Pure & Wild made it to Victoria in 5th place overall, and was the first boat under sail to ring the bell yesterday. Many other teams struggled later in the day, with 40 knot winds and rough seas, and were forced to turn back or take shelter off course.
