Idaho Hunger Statistics:
The Idaho Foodbank is dedicated to provide the latest information and most accurate statistics related to hunger in Idaho. All of our statistical data is derived from multiple sources throughout Idaho. This Information is provided by the United States Census Bureau, Feeding America, USDA, Northwest Federation of Community Organizations (NFCO), U.S. Conference of Mayors, our partner agencies throughout the state and through The Idaho Foodbank’s internal data collection processes.
Recently, Feeding America (the national organization of food banks) conducted a national survey titled the Hunger Study. This independent study was produced and analyzed by Mathmatica, a highly regarded independent national research firm. This study, which was conducted in 2009, measured hunger in Idaho on many levels and measured the need being served through Idaho’s food bank network. This survey produced some compelling statistics and we have provided them here for your information and resource.
If you have any questions regarding the information related to these statistical documents or the hunger study itself, please do not hesitate to contact us in our media relations department, directly.
