Hunger doesn’t discriminate. The Foodbank Hunger Report 2025, released today, reveals a growing food insecurity crisis across Australia and challenges the misconception that hunger only affects the unemployed or homeless. “Australians are doing everything right: working, budgeting, seeking help - yet still going hungry. This is a failure of policy, not people. We need coordinated, national action now.” said Foodbank Australia CEO, Kylea (Pronounced Kylie) Tink Among the report’s most alarming findings: » One in two (48%) of all renting households have experienced food insecurity in the past year. » Seven in ten (67%) of households that include someone with a disability or health issue have experienced food insecurity in the past 12 months, with three quarters of them in the severe category. » Nearly 7 in 10 (68%) single-parent households are now food insecure » One in five households earning $91,000 or more experienced food insecurity in the past 12 months. We’re calling on the Federal Government to act now to stop Australians from going hungry. 👉Read the Foodbank Hunger Report 2025: https://lnkd.in/gfQjPnie #HungerInAustralia #HungerCrisis #EndHunger #ZeroHunger
