How One Initiative Is Helping Wyoming Families Fight Hunger

With the hustle and bustle of today's high-strung society, there are too many things to worry about. Paying rent, car payments, utility bills, and putting food on the table shouldn't be at the top of the list. In Wyoming, over 28,000 families rely on government assistance to survive and keep their families with the nutrition needed to make it through each day.

Anyone who says they've never needed help must've been born with a silver spoon in their mouth, because at one point or another, everyone has needed a little extra help, whether it's borrowing $5 to put into their gas tank to be able to get to work, needing help paying the rent, or just an invitation for a meal.

I received word from Casper artist Travis Glasgow that if you need help, there's a place for you to go. It's called "Still Good," and it's an easy-to-use website that gives you the ability to either request items you need or help those Wyomingites who may need extra help.

Inspired by the vision of Tori Feronti with StillGood, combined with the technical expertise and entrepreneurial background of Travis Glasgow, the StillGood platform is designed to instantly facilitate the process of giving and receiving on a large scale. Together with our generous community volunteers, donors, businesses and organizations, this marketplace can help fight food insecurity and waste in a real-time environment. This collective effort can make an enormous impact within our communities. Please join us in helping create a thriving future for Wyoming and beyond!

When the government is working in a regular capacity, over 47 million Americans suffer from food insecurity. Meaning, they don't have access to nutritious food. In Wyoming, 1 in 6 people are hungry, and that's where Still Good is stepping in. If you'd like to help or need assistance, visit StillGoodWyoming.org to initiate the process.
